Step 1 :Substitute \(x=3\) into the function \(f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x+3\): \[f(3)=\frac{1}{2}(3)+3\]
Step 2 :Simplify the expression: \[f(3)=\frac{3}{2}+3\]
Step 3 :Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: \[f(3)=\frac{3}{2}+\frac{6}{2}\]
Step 4 :Add the fractions: \[f(3)=\frac{9}{2}\]
Step 5 :Convert the improper fraction to a decimal: \[f(3)=4.5\]
Step 6 :\(\boxed{f(3)=4.5}\)
