LESSON 1: EVALUATING FUNCTIONS Evaluating function is the process of determining the value of the function at the number assigned to a given variable. Just like in evaluating algebraic expressions, to evaluate function you just need to a.) replace each letter in the expression with the assigned value and b.) perform the operations in the expression using the correct order of operations. Look at these examples! Example 1: Given f (x) = 2x − 4 , find the value of the function if x = 3. Solution:
