The function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (3)^3 \) is actually a constant function because it simplifies to a single value.
Calculating it:
\[ f(x) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 27 = \frac{27}{2} = 13.5 \]
Since it does not change with \( x \) (it’s the same for any value of \( x \)), it is neither an exponential function nor a linear function of any kind.
If you are looking at this expression in the context of its form, you might be thinking about functions in general. However, because \( f(x) \) evaluates to a constant, it does not belong to the listed categories (exponential decay, exponential growth, increasing linear, decreasing linear).
So, in this specific case, the function is best described as a constant function. If you have any more details regarding the context or additional functions, feel free to mention them!
