Step 1 :Given the function \(f(x) = -2 e^{x}\), we are asked to find the value of \(f(-2)\).
Step 2 :Substitute \(x = -2\) into the function: \(f(-2) = -2 e^{-2}\).
Step 3 :Calculate the value of \(f(-2)\) to get approximately -0.2706705664732254.
Step 4 :Round the result to the nearest hundredth to get 0.27.
Step 5 :Final Answer: The value of \(f(-2)\) is \(\boxed{0.27}\).
