Answer:
The value of f(-10) is equal to 186.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the function:
[tex]f(x) = 2x^2 + x - 4[/tex]
We are told to find the value of:
[tex]f(-10)[/tex]
If we pay close attention, we can see a transition between:
[tex]f(x) \rightarrow f(-10)[/tex]
We have turned x into -10, making x = -10.
Therefore, we can change the value of x in the entire function to -10.
[tex]f(-10)=2(-10)^2+(-10) - 4\\\\f(-10) = 200 - 10 - 4\\\\f(-10) = 186[/tex]
Therefore, f(-10) = 186.
