Evaluating Functions Effectively

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate a function g(x) defined as 8x + 2. It demonstrates the process of finding g(0), g(-5), and g(2x + 3) by substituting the input values into the function. The tutorial emphasizes understanding function evaluation by replacing x with the given input, whether it's a number or an expression.

What is the function g(x) defined as?

• g(x) = x^2 + 8

• g(x) = 8x - 2

• g(x) = 2x + 8

• g(x) = 8x + 2

What does the function g(x) do when you input a value for x?

• It squares x and adds 8

• It multiplies x by 2 and adds 8

• It multiplies x by 8 and adds 2

• It subtracts 2 from x and multiplies by 8
