Question #9f025

Answer 1

Assuming your question is `f(x) = -x / 3 +2` and required to find `f(1) / f(3)`

Explanation:

The answer is `5/3`

We have,

`f(x) = -x / 3 +2`

Now to find `f(1) / f(3)` , we find values of `f(1)` and `f(3)`

For finding the value of `f(1)`

Take,
`f(x) = -x / 3 +2` (according to the question)

Now, replace the `'x'` with 1 for `f(1)`

Then,
`f(1) = -1 / 3 +2`
`or, f(1) = 5 / 3` (from calculations)

Similarly for `f(3)`

Now, replace the `'x'` with 3 for `f(3)`
Then,
`f(3) = -3 / 3 +2`
`or, f(3) = 1` (from calculations)

Hence,

We have the values for `f(1) and f(3)` as `5/3 and 1` respectively

Now,

`f(1)/f(3) = "5/3"/ 1` (keeping the values of `f(1) and f(3)`

We get,

`f(1)/f(3) = 5/3`

Which is your answer.
