Is the expression 3(x+1 1\2)-3 equivalent to 3x+1 1\2

no

Step-by-step explanation:

first simplify or solve the original expression ( 3(x + 11/2)-3 )

1.  Parenthesis go first so do the 11/2 = 5.5 (x+5.5)

2. Distribute the 3 to the parenthesis (3x + 16.5)

3. subtract 3 from the expression (3x + 13.5)

Compare new equation with 3x + 11/2. Are they the same? (3x+13.5 vs. 3x + 11/2)

They are not the same thing.

(1,4) is on graph of f(x)

f(1) = 4

so 1/4 f(x)

1/4 f(1)

1/4. ×4

1

so point for function 1/4. f(x) is (1,1)
