Q & A
What is the value of g(4) in the function g(x) = 5x - 7?
-The value of g(4) is calculated by substituting x with 4 in the function g(x) = 5x - 7. So, g(4) = 5*4 - 7, which simplifies to 20 - 7, resulting in g(4) = 13.
How do you find h(2) for the function h(t) = sqrt(t^2 + 2t + 4)?
-To find h(2), substitute x with 2 in the function h(t) = sqrt(t^2 + 2t + 4). This results in h(2) = sqrt((2)^2 + 2*2 + 4), which simplifies to sqrt(4 + 4 + 4) = sqrt(12). Since 12 is 4 times 3, h(2) equals 2sqrt(3).
What is the result of k(-3) for the rational function k(x) = (3x^2 - 1) / (2x + 4)?
-For k(-3), substitute x with -3 in the function k(x) = (3x^2 - 1) / (2x + 4). This gives k(-3) = (3*(-3)^2 - 1) / (2*(-3) + 4), which simplifies to (27 - 1) / (-6 + 4), resulting in 26 / -2, which equals -13.
What is the polynomial function for f(5x - 2) in the expression f(x) = 2x^2 + 5x - 9?
-To find f(5x - 2), substitute x with (5x - 2) in the expression f(x) = 2x^2 + 5x - 9. This results in f(5x - 2) = 2(5x - 2)^2 + 5(5x - 2) - 9, which expands to a quadratic function in terms of x.
How do you calculate g(3/2) for the exponential function g(p) = 4^x?
-For g(3/2), substitute x with 3/2 in the function g(p) = 4^x. This results in g(3/2) = 4^(3/2). Since the exponent is in the denominator, it's equivalent to the square root of 4 raised to the power of 3, which is 2^3, giving g(3/2) = 8.
What is the significance of substituting values into functions as demonstrated in the script?
-Substituting values into functions allows for the evaluation of the function at specific points, which is essential for understanding how the function behaves and for solving problems where specific outputs are required for given inputs.
How does the process of substitution help in simplifying expressions involving functions?
-Substitution simplifies expressions by replacing variables with specific values, which allows for the calculation of the function's output at those values, making it easier to understand the function's behavior and results.
What is the importance of following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) when evaluating functions?
-Following the order of operations ensures that calculations are performed correctly, especially when dealing with functions that involve multiple mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, exponents, and roots.
Can you provide an example of how to handle a binomial raised to a power in a function?
-Yes, an example is shown in the script where (5x - 2)^2 is expanded to 25x^2 - 20x + 4. This is done by squaring each term in the binomial and then combining like terms.
What is the final result of f(5x - 2) from the script's example?
-The final result of f(5x - 2) is a quadratic function that simplifies to -15x^2 - 11x - 9 after expanding and combining like terms.

📘 Function Evaluation
The video segment demonstrates how to evaluate functions by substituting given values for the variable. The first example shows the evaluation of the function g(x) = 5x - 7 at x = 4, resulting in g(4) = 13. The second example involves evaluating h(t) = √(t^2 + 2t + 4) at t = 2, leading to h(2) = √(12), which simplifies to 2√3. The third example calculates k(3) for the rational function k(x) = (3x^2 - 1) / (2x + 4), yielding k(3) = -13 after substituting x = 3 and simplifying the expression.
📗 Polynomial and Exponential Function Evaluation
This part of the video script covers the evaluation of more complex functions. The first example calculates f(5x - 2) for the polynomial function f(x) = 2x^2 + 5x - 9, resulting in a quadratic function as the output. The second example involves an exponential function g(p) = 4^x, where the value p = 3/2 is substituted to get g(3/2) = 8, following the rules of exponents and simplification.

Hello guys Welcome back to our channel
so for today's video Tuturuan ko kayo
kung paano ba
mag-vp natin yung value x which is 4
doon sa ating function Okay so ilalagay
natin yung 4 doon sa ating x so let's
have g of 4 equ dito ang function natin
we have 5x - 7 so copy
5 then yyung x natin is equ to pos 4 so
that is 5
4 Min So may constant tayo dito which is
7
so ito na yung ating equation so
simplify na lang natin yan so by PDA
uunahin natin yung Multiplication so 5 *
4 that is
20 - 7 so subtract niyo lang
yan 20 - 7 that is 13 so ito yung ating
G4 Okay so let's have another example
number two we have h of t is equ to the
S root X S + 2x + 4 then we are asked to
get h of 2 so ganon din so dito ang
value ng x natin is pos 2 so ang gagawin
niyo lang iinput siya natin doon sa
ating variable which is x So may dalawa
tayong variable so try
natin So ang value ng x natin is pos 2
so that is x so we have 2 2 then
square + 2x so copy 2 So may variable
tayo x so that is pos 2 then + 4 so may
constant tayo tama so simplify niyo lang
yan We have s root of 2 squ so that is 2
* 2 pos 4 + 2 * 2 4 then +
4 Okay so we have 4 + 4 + 4 that is 12
so ang gagawin lang natin is irrational
natin yan ' ba So alam naman natin na
ang 12 is same lang siya ni 4 *
3 Okay So ibig sabihin ang ating h of 2
is equ
to root 4 that is pos 2 Then may naiwan
tayong radicand which is 3 So ito na
ngayon yung ating final
answer Okay nasusundan
ba next Let's have another example
number 3 so meron tayong rational
function k x = 3x s- 1 all over 2x + 4
then we are asked to get
k-3 so ang value ng x natin is 3 ang
gagawin niyo lang iinput natin siya dito
sa ating dalawang variable yung x so ang
x natin Magiging -3 so that is 3x so
that is
-3 then
square - 1 So this will be our numerator
sa Denominator naman we have 2x + 4 so
that is 2 x so ang x natin
-3 then + 4
Okay so by pemdas uunahin natin ung may
exponent ' ba
ito so that is 3 * -3 s so that is -3 *
-3 that is + 9 then copy - 1 all over 2
* -3 then +
4 Okay so tanggal tanggalin na natin ung
mga parenthesis we have 3 * 9 so that is
2 27 - 1 / 2 * -3 that is
-6 then +
4 Okay so subtract natin 27 - 1 that is
26 / -6 + 4 that is
-2 so lowest term lang natin 26 / -2 and
that will be our K of
-3 26 di di -2 that is
-13 Okay so this will be our final
answer nasusundan
ba So now let's have example number four
we have f x = 2x s + 5x - 9 then we are
asked to get f 5x - 2 so we
have x as 5x - 2 so dito ang value ng x
natin is an expression '
ba parang ano binomial 5x - 2 so i-in
putut siya natin dito sa ating dalawang
x Okay so try natin we have 2 quantity x
so ang x natin will be 5x -
2 and then
square tama then + 5x
so again ang x natin will be 5x -
2 - 9 so wala tayong discrete answer
dito so magiging sagot natin dito is a
polynomial function din Okay so try
natin first una nating i-execute yung
square so we have square of
binomial so that is 5x s so 5x Tim 5x
that is is 25x
s and then Twice natin yung product ni
5x - 5x and -2 so 5x * -2 that is - 10x
then Twice we have -
20x Okay then square the last term that
is +
4 so copy lang natin yung susunod we
have 5 * 5x - 2 -
9 So ngayon after natin ma- square yung
binomial idi-distribute na natin yung
dalawang ah monomial sa labas ng
exponent ah sa labas ng parenthesis tama
so try natin 2 * 25 that is 50x
S next we have 2 * -20 that is -
40x then 2 * 4 4 that is pos
8
Okay so next we have 5 * 5 or 5x that is
25x then 5 -2 that's -10 then bring down
-9
Okay so ang last step natin is combining
similar terms so bring down natin yung X
S kasi wala naman siyang similar terms
we have - 40x + 25 that is -
15x then 8 - 10 that is -2 - 9 - 11 so
ito na ngayon yung ating f 5x - 2 so
meron tayong quadratic function Okay so
this will be
our final
answer nakukuha ba
guys so Let's have now our last example
we have g of p = 4 R x then ang x natin
is 3 / 2 so dito we have exponential
function
Okay so to get g 3 /
2 iinput natin siya doon sa ating x this
time ang x natin is a power tama
exponent so we have 4 ra x so ang x
natin is 3 /
2 Okay so ia-apply natin dito guys yung
rules of exponent no kung saan pagka ang
exponent natin is nasa Denominator Same
lang siya as root ' ba kung ang
Denominator natin is 2 Same lang siya ni
square root tama so we have s root 4
then ang maiiwan sa exponent natin is
yung numerator which is
3 Okay so simplify natin yan
s root 4 ang sagot natin diyan is 2 then
meron tayong exponent na
3 So we have g 3 / 2 is equ to 2 cu
which is 2 * 2 * 2 and that is equal to
+ 8 ito Iyung value ng ating
function Okay so naintindihan ba Guys
kung paano
So kung meron kayong questions or
clarifications kindly comment it on the
comment section below Okay so thank you
guys for watching this is prof d See you
on the flip side bye
