Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

[tex]f(x)=3x^2+2x-5[/tex]

To evaluate the value of f(-2), substitute -2 for x. Thus:

[tex]f(-2)=3(-2)^2+2(-2)-5[/tex]

Square first:

[tex]f(-2)=3(4)+2(-2)-5[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]f(-2)=12-4-5[/tex]

Now, subtract:

[tex]f(-2)=8-5=3[/tex]

So:

[tex]f(-2)=3[/tex]

And we're done!
