Activity #2: Evaluation of Functions

Evaluate the function  $f\left(x\right)=x^2+4x+1$  when  $x=-2$  .

• 0

• -1

• -2

• -3

How do we evaluate a function?

• by finding the value to be substituted to the variable

• by substituting the given value of the variable and simplifying

• by solving for the value of the variable that will make the function equal to 0

• by graphing the function on the Cartesian plane

If  $f\left(x\right)=m+5q$  ,where  $m=1$  and $q=5$  find  the value of  $f\left(x\right)$
