It is used to symbolize their various activities,
based on the various talents and attractiveness of the members,
like a function in which the output or results change depending on the input value of x.

taken together, symbolizes "flower reminiscent of women"
f(x)'s Fandom Name is 'MeU' which was finally announced in January 2016

f(x)'s Impact:
In an industry focused more on mini-albums, f(x)'s discography leaned more towards full-length studio albums, releasing four internationally acclaimed albums during their time as a group. They gained recognition for their experimental style and eclectic electro-pop sound. Their critically-acclaimed sophomore album Pink Tape was the only K-pop album on US music channel Fuse's '41 Best Albums of 2013'. In 2015, while reviewing 4 Walls, American music magazine Spin called f(x) the "world’s greatest living pop group" at the time. In 2017, Billboard ranked f(x) at number seven on their "Top 10 K-pop Girl Groups of the Past Decade" list.
"Rum Pum Pum Pum" and "4 Walls" were both included on Billboard's "The 100 Greatest K-pop Songs of the 2010s" staff list, at numbers 33 and 9, respectively. Billboard also noted that "Ice Cream Cake" represents a baton pass from f(x) to Red Velvet as the best idol group alive, meaning that f(x) was the former holder of the title. They also became the first K-pop act to perform at SXSW.
And with all that being said, this makes f(x) one of the few recognized K-pop groups internationally.
