To find [tex]\(f(0.2)\)[/tex] for the function [tex]\( f(x) = 3x - 4 \)[/tex], we need to follow these steps:
1. Identify the given function:
[tex]\[
f(x) = 3x - 4
\][/tex]
2. Substitute the value [tex]\( x = 0.2 \)[/tex] into the function:
[tex]\[
f(0.2) = 3(0.2) - 4
\][/tex]
3. Perform the multiplication:
[tex]\[
3 \times 0.2 = 0.6
\][/tex]
4. Substitute this result back into the function:
[tex]\[
f(0.2) = 0.6 - 4
\][/tex]
5. Subtract 4 from 0.6:
[tex]\[
f(0.2) = 0.6 - 4 = -3.4
\][/tex]
So, the value of [tex]\( f(0.2) \)[/tex] is [tex]\(-3.4\)[/tex].
