Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If it went from f(x) ⟹ f(0), that means that x=0.
So, you would plug in 0 for x in f(x)=-8(2)^x-12.
After plugging in the value of x, x=0, into the equation, you should have
f(0)=8(2)^0-12
Now, we are solving for f(0) (or f(x)).
You would use PEMDAS to solve this:
P-PARENTHESIS
E-EXPONENT
M-MULTIPLICATION
D-DIVISION
A-ADDITION
S-SUBTRACTION
There are no parenthesis
there are exponents,
(2)^0 and that =1
so we have f(0)=8(1)-12
there is multiplication, 8(1) which =8
so now we have f(0)=8-12
there is no division
there is subtraction
8-12, which equals -4
f(0)=-4
