To solve for [tex]\( f(x) \)[/tex] when [tex]\( x = 10 \)[/tex] given the function [tex]\( f(x) = \frac{x}{2} + 8 \)[/tex], follow these steps:
1. Substitute the value [tex]\( x = 10 \)[/tex] into the function [tex]\( f(x) \)[/tex].
[tex]\[
f(10) = \frac{10}{2} + 8
\][/tex]
2. Perform the division: Calculate [tex]\( \frac{10}{2} \)[/tex].
[tex]\[
\frac{10}{2} = 5
\][/tex]
3. Add the result of the division to 8.
[tex]\[
5 + 8 = 13
\][/tex]
Therefore, [tex]\( f(10) = 13.0 \)[/tex].
