Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Substitute \(x=3\): \(3 f(3)+4 f\\left(\\frac{1}{3}\\right)=-\\frac{1}{3}\) (1) Substitute \(x=\\frac{1}{3}\): \(3 f\\left(\\frac{1}{3}\\right)+4 f(3)=\\frac{2-\\frac{1}{3}}{\\frac{1}{3}} = 5\) (2) From (1) \(\times 3\): \(9 f(3)+12 f\\left(\\frac{1}{3}\\right)=-1\) From (2)…
