inequality: 60=22+8x
Hey there!
To solve this, we will first replace x with 5 anytime we see it in the equation.
f(5) = 2^5
Now, we simplify 2^5.
The base is 2 and the exponent is 5 in this case.
The exponent is the number of times you multiply the base by itself. In oour case:
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 32
f(5) = 32
Hope this helps!
