Answer:
f(4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The output is the value of f(x) for a given value of x ( the input )
Substitute the given values of x into f(x) to determine the output, that is
f(- 8) = (- 8)³ - (- 8)² = - 512 - 64 = - 576 ≠ 48
f(- 4) = (- 4)³ - (- 4)² = - 64 - 16 = - 80 ≠ 48
f(4) = 4³ - 4² = 64 - 16 = 48
Thus f(4) gives an output of 48
