Evaluate the function for the following input:

Question

f(x)=3 - 2x. Which input generates the largest output when evaluating the function?

A. f(0)
B. f(3)
C. f(5)
D. f(2)

Answer 1

To evaluate the function, we substitute the input value into the function expression and calculate the output.

For option A, f(0) = 3 - 2(0) = 3.
For option B, f(3) = 3 - 2(3) = 3 - 6 = -3.
For option C, f(5) = 3 - 2(5) = 3 - 10 = -7.
For option D, f(2) = 3 - 2(2) = 3 - 4 = -1.

We can see that the largest output is generated when evaluating the function using option A, f(0), which gives an output of 3.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
