What is the value of f(-3) when f(x)=5(2)

a) 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-3) when f(x)=5(2)^x just replace the x with -3

f(x)=5(2)^x = 5 (2)^-3 we find the 3rd power of 2 first which means multiply 2 with itself 3 times

2×2×2 = 8 but here, it asks us for negative third power of 2 so we turn the 8 upside down :

if 2^3 = 8 then 2^-3 = 1/8 and now we multiply it with 5

5 × 1/8 = 5/8

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
