f(x)=-4(x+4)

Question

f(5)=
simplify your answer

Answer 1

To find \( f(5) \) for the function \( f(x) = -4(x + 4) \), we will substitute \( x = 5 \) into the function:

\[ f(5) = -4(5 + 4) \]

Now, calculate the expression inside the parentheses:

\[ 5 + 4 = 9 \]

Now substitute this back into the equation:

\[ f(5) = -4(9) \]

Now calculate:

\[ f(5) = -36 \]

So, the simplified answer is

\[ \boxed{-36} \]
