4, 6, and 11
To evaluate a function for a certain value of x means that we substitute the given value for every instance of x. Let's do this for the given function when x=-2.
When x=-2, the function's value is 4. We will evaluate this function for x=0 and x=5 in the same way using the table below.
| x | x+6 | f(x) |
|---|---|---|
| -2 | -2+6 | 4 |
| 0 | 0+6 | 6 |
| 5 | 5+6 | 11 |
