the answer is still 3

if u graph f(x) = 3 you get a straight line
so f(x) = 3 for all real numbers
 
By "f(x) = 3", do you mean "f(x) = 3 for all x"?
 
he probably meant f(x) = 3 for all x
otherwise it would've been f(a) = 3...

Assuming he wrote it correctly, that's all it could mean!
 
In case you come across a similar problem, f(x-ct) translates f(x) to the right by ct.
