To find F(4), you simply plug 4 in for x. That means multiplying 5 by 1/2x to the 4th power. That comes out to .3125, or D. (5/16)

Answer:

The answer is the option D


((5)/(16))

Explanation:

we have


f(x)=5((1)/(2))^(x)

we know that

To find
f(4)

substitute the value of
x=4 in the function

so


f(4)=5((1)/(2))^(4)


f(4)=5((1)/(16))


f(4)=((5)/(16))
