Given the function f(x) = 2x +4 find the value of f(1/2). A. 5 B. 4 ½ C. 6 ½ D. 6
Put \(x = \frac{1}{2}\) in the function..
\[\Large f(x) = 2x + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 2\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) + 4 \]
I'll let you finish
After solving what you got @suckatmath17
i really have no clue what to do...
sorry
2 times one-half is ???
do i just times the bottom half of the fraction with 2?
So \[\Large f(x) = 2x + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 2\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 1 + 4 \]
sry made a typo
im sorry i still dont get this at all!:(
\[ \Large 2 \times \frac{1}{2} \] \[ \Large \frac{2}{1} \times \frac{1}{2} \] \[ \Large \frac{2 \times 1}{1 \times 2} \] \[ \Large \frac{2}{2} \] \[ \Large 1\] So \[ \Large 2 \times \frac{1}{2} = 1 \]
Hopefully you now see how 2 times one-half is 1?
yes i do thanks
So this means... \[\Large f(x) = 2x + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 2\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 1 + 4 \] \[\Large f\left( \frac{1}{2} \right ) = 5 \]
oh my gosh thanks soooo much
