Answer:

q(x) =-5

Step-by-step explanation:

I am solving this using Function Notation.

We are given:

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3

While we are to find:

q(x) =-4

In Function Notation, replace all the "x" you see with the value you are given.

So, in this case,

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3\\\\=\frac{1}{2}x - 3

Would become

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3\\\\=\frac{1}{2}(-4) - 3

Now we can solve.

\frac{1}{2}(-4) - 3

Use PEMDAS; Parenthesis first;

\frac{1}{2}(-\frac{4}{1})

Cross divide: 1 cancels 1, -4 ÷ 2 = -2

Hence, we are left with

(-2) - 3

-5

Therefore, the value of x is -5
