To evaluate the function \( f(x) = 4 - 5x \), we'll need a list of inputs. Since the specific inputs haven't been provided in your question, I'll demonstrate how you can evaluate the function for different values of \( x \) and determine which one produces the largest value for \( f(x) \).
Here's how to evaluate the function for a few examples:
-
Let \( x = 0 \): \[ f(0) = 4 - 5(0) = 4 \]
-
Let \( x = 1 \): \[ f(1) = 4 - 5(1) = 4 - 5 = -1 \]
-
Let \( x = -1 \): \[ f(-1) = 4 - 5(-1) = 4 + 5 = 9 \]
-
Let \( x = 2 \): \[ f(2) = 4 - 5(2) = 4 - 10 = -6 \]
From these evaluations:
- \( f(0) = 4 \)
- \( f(1) = -1 \)
- \( f(-1) = 9 \)
- \( f(2) = -6 \)
Among these, \( f(-1) = 9 \) is the largest output.
If you have specific inputs you would like to evaluate, please provide them, and I can help determine which one yields the maximum output from the function \( f(x) = 4 - 5x \).
