2/5x -3

If we plug in 25, we get:

2/5(25) - 3 =

50/5 - 3 =

10 - 3

7

We can make an equation out of this by defining this mystery number as x. We can also use the word "of", by realizing that the word means multiplication.
Therefore, we have:
2/5x -3
If we plug in 25, we get:
2/5(25) - 3 =
50/5 - 3 =
10 - 3 =
7
Hopefully this helps!

True or False?In Exercise,determine whether the statement is true or false given that f(x) = In x.if it is false,explain why or

kompoz [17]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$f(x) = \text{In } x$

The given statement is

$f(x - 2) = f(x) - f(2), x > 2$

Putting the values on the right side of the given statement

$f(x-2)\\=\text{ln }(x-2) \neq \text{ln }x - \text{ln }2$

Thus, the given statement is false.

This can be explained with the help of an example:

For x = 3

$f(x-2) = f(3-2) = f(1)\\=\text{ln }1 = 0\\f(x)-f(2)\\=\text{ln }3-\text{ln }2 \\=0.4054$
