Final answer:

After substituting -(2/3) into the function f(x) = 3x + 1, we find that f(-(2/3)) equals -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student asked us to evaluate the function f(x) = 3x + 1 for f(-(2)/(3)).

To do so, we simply substitute x with -(2/3) and then calculate the value:

f(-(2/3)) = 3(-2/3) + 1 = -2 + 1 = -1.

Therefore, the correct answer is A) -1.
