Explanation:

what is really the definition of this f(x) ?

did you leave something out ?

the most likely answer is

f(1) = 1

as it fits many functions that fits your truncated definition.

e.g.

as you wrote it

f(x) = 1x = x

f(1) = 1

or

f(x) = 1^x

f(1) = 1¹ = 1

or

f(x) = 1/x

f(1) = 1/1 = 1

but if the real function is something else, you have to adapt this correspondingly.

f(1) means to put the value 1 into every place of x in the function definition, and then you calculate the result.

e.g. if

f(x) = 1 + x

then

f(1) = 1 + 1 = 2
