To evaluate the function $f(x) = -3x - 2$ at $x = 3$, substitute $x = 3$ into the function:

$f(3) = -3(3) - 2$ $f(3) = -9 - 2$ $f(3) = -11$

So, $f(3) = -11$.

2. How does changing the value of $x$ affect the value of $f(x)$?
3. Can you find the x-intercept of the function $f(x) = -3x - 2$?
4. How do you determine the y-intercept of a linear function like $f(x) = -3x - 2$?
5. How would you graph the function $f(x) = -3x - 2$?

Tip: To find the slope of a linear function, look at the coefficient of $x$ in the function's equation.
