These are two separate problems: in the first we will have to substitute in a new value for x into the original equation and in the second we will manipulate the preexisting equation for f(x).
To begin, we will sub in f(x/3). To do this, we will substitute each variable x in the equation (in this case there is only one) with x/3, and then simplify the resulting equation.
f(x) = 6x - 18
f(x/3) = 6(x/3) - 18
To simplify, we should distribute the 6 on the right side of the equation.
f(x/3) = 6x/3 - 18
Now, we can divide the first term on the right side to finalize our simplification.
f(x/3) = 2x -18
Secondly, we are asked to find f(x)/3. To do this, we will take our original value for f(x), and then simplify divide that entire function by 3.
f(x) = 6x - 18
f(x)/3 = (6x-18)/3
This means that we must divide each term of the binomial by 3, so we are really computing
f(x)/3 = 6x/3 - 18/3
We can simplify by dividing both of the terms.
f(x)/3 = 2x - 6
Therefore, your answer is that f(x/3) = 2x - 18, but f(x)/3 = 2x - 6. It is important to recognize that these are two similar, yet different, answers.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Part A:
-Minimum: 10
-Q1: 17.5
-Median: 30
-Q3: 42.5
-Maximum: 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Part B: IQR= 25
This shows that the data varies for 25 different numbers. That HALF of the data is between 25 numbers.
Part C: Using a box-and-whisker plot you can interpret the different values. Minimum is the first dot (10), connected to the first line (Q1 which is 17.5), connected by a box to the median (30), connected by a box to the third line (Q3 which is 42.5), connected to the last dot which is the maximum (50). And IQR is Q3-Q1, so 42.5-17.5 which is 25.
