![### Function Evaluation Exercise
For the given function, compute the missing values in the following table.
**Function:**
\[ f(x) = 8^x \]
**Table:**
| \(\mathbf{x}\) | \(-3\) | \(-2\) | \(-1\) | \(0\) | \(1\) | \(2\) | \(3\) |
|:--------------:|:-----:|:-----:|:-----:|:----:|:----:|:----:|:----:|
| \(\mathbf{f(x)}\) | \(-24\) | \(-16\) | \(-8\) | \(0\) | \(8\) | \(16\) | \(24\) |
In this table, each value in the row for \(f(x)\) is checked for accuracy against the given function \(f(x) = 8^x\). Correct and incorrect calculations are marked respectively:
- \(x = -3\): \(-24\) ❌
- \(x = -2\): \(-16\) ❌
- \(x = -1\): \(-8\) ❌
- \(x = 0\): \(0\) ❌
- \(x = 1\): \(8\) ✅
- \(x = 2\): \(16\) ❌
- \(x = 3\): \(24\) ❌
### Explanation of Incorrect Values:
- For \(x = -3\), the correct value should be \((\frac{1}{8})^3 = \frac{1}{512}\).
- For \(x = -2\), the correct value should be \((\frac{1}{8})^2 = \frac{1}{64}\).
- For \(x = -1\), the correct value should be \((\frac{1}{8}) = 0.125\).
- For \(x = 0\), the correct value should be \(8^0 = 1\).
- For \(x = 2\), the correct value should be \(8^2 = 64\).
- For \(x = 3\), the correct value should be \(8^3 = 512\).
