Answer

\(\boxed{4.25}\) is the final answer

Steps

Step 1 :Substitute $x=-3$ into the function $f(x) = 2^{(x+1)} + 4$

Step 2 :Simplify the expression to get $f(-3) = 2^{(-3+1)} + 4$

Step 3 :Further simplify to get $f(-3) = 2^{-2} + 4$

Step 4 :Calculate the value of $2^{-2}$ and add 4 to get $f(-3) = 0.25 + 4$

Step 5 :Finally, simplify to get $f(-3) = 4.25$

Step 6 :\(\boxed{4.25}\) is the final answer
