If f(x) = -3(f - x), what is the value of f(1)?
Please help me I'm really dumb and I need to pass this class. Finals are coming up and I need help.
It would help if you proofread your questions before you posted them.
Why is f in the second part of the equation?
f(1) = -3f + 3
To find the value of f(1), we need to substitute x = 1 into the given equation f(x) = -3(f - x).
First, let's simplify the equation by expanding (-3)(f - x) using the distributive property:
f(x) = -3f + 3x
Now, substitute x = 1 into the equation:
f(1) = -3f + 3(1)
Simplify the right side:
f(1) = -3f + 3
At this point, we don't have enough information to directly determine the value of f(1) because we don't know the specific value of f. To find the value of f(1), we would need either the value of f or additional information about f.
If you have any specific values or additional information related to f, please provide them for further assistance.
