Evaluate the Function f(x)=3x-2 ; f(-1)

$f (x) = 3 x - 2$ ; $f (- 1)$

Step 1

Replace the variable $x$ with $- 1$ in the expression.

$f (- 1) = 3 (- 1) - 2$

Step 2

Simplify $3 (- 1) - 2$ .

Remove parentheses.

$3 (- 1) - 2$

Multiply $3$ by $- 1$ .

$- 3 - 2$

Subtract $2$ from $- 3$ .

$- 5$
