Please help me im hopeless :c What is the value of f(6) for the function f(x) = 3x – 5? (Type only the value of your final answer, no variables.)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

f(6) means you plug x = 6 into the function and evaluate

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

f(x) = 3x - 5 f(6) = 3*6 - 5 ... replace EVERY copy of x with 6 (since x = 6) f(6) = ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so f(6) would= 13?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

perfect, see you're not hopeless at all

I didnt know that it meant substitute, it didnt say that in the lesson. It barly says anything in the lesson...
