Math Problem Statement

Find f(6) and g(-4) for the functions f(x) = -4x - 3 and g(x) = 2x^3 + 6.

Solution

The functions f(x)=4x3f(x) = -4x - 3 and g(x)=2x3+6g(x) = 2x^3 + 6 are given, and you're asked to find f(6)f(6) and g(4)g(-4).

Let's solve these:

1. Finding f(6)f(6):

Substitute x=6x = 6 into f(x)f(x): f(6)=4(6)3=243=27f(6) = -4(6) - 3 = -24 - 3 = -27

2. Finding g(4)g(-4):

Substitute x=4x = -4 into g(x)g(x): g(4)=2(4)3+6=2(64)+6=128+6=122g(-4) = 2(-4)^3 + 6 = 2(-64) + 6 = -128 + 6 = -122

Final answers:

  • f(6)=27f(6) = -27
  • g(4)=122g(-4) = -122
