Answer:

(1,1)

Explanation:

In the equation f(x), you are plugging in the x coordinate which in this case is one. That means in 1/4f(x), x will remain the same, because you are still plugging in the same thing. What will change is the y coordinate. 1/4f(x) is saying that the y coordinate will be a fourth of the original y coordinate(4). 4 times 1/4 is equal to one.

If the x coordinate stays the same, and the y coordinate is a fourth of 4, the corresponding points in the function f(x) will be (1,1)
