To solve for f(1) in the function f(x) = 2x + 6, we first need to replace x with 1 in the function.
So, we calculate:
f(1) = 2(1) + 6
This simplifies to:
f(1) = 2 + 6
Therefore:
f(1) = 8
Even though the question includes ‘when x = 2’, it’s important to clarify that we’re specifically evaluating f at x = 1. Thus, the value of f(1) is 8.
