Final answer:

To evaluate the function f(x) = |1 - 5x| you need to substitute the value of x into the expression and consider the absolute value, providing a non-negative output.

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears there is a typographical error in your question, but I will address what seems to be the core request. To evaluate the function f(x) = |1 - 5x|, you need to consider the absolute value. The absolute value function outputs the non-negative value of whatever input it receives. If 1 - 5x is positive or zero, the function will output 1 - 5x. If 1 - 5x is negative, it will output -(1 - 5x), which is 5x - 1.

For example, if x = 0.2, then we would substitute 0.2 into the function to get f(0.2) = |1 - 5(0.2)| = |1 - 1| = 0.

If x = 0.3, the function value would be f(0.3) = |1 - 5(0.3)| = |1 - 1.5| = |-0.5| = 0.5.
