Question

If f(x)=3x-5, then how do you find f(2)?

Answer 1

`f(2) = 1`

Explanation:

`f(x)` means a function of `x`. In this case the function of `x` is `3x-5`

So if you have `f(2)` you're applying the function with your value of `x` as 2, so we simply substitute 2 into the equation where there is an `x` so in this case:

`f(x) = 3x - 5`
`f(2) = 3(2) - 5`
`f(2) = (3*2) - 5`
`f(2) = 6 - 5`
`f(2) = 1`
