To evaluate the function f(x) = 3 - 2x, substitute the given inputs in place of x and simplify the expression.

f(3) = 3 - 2(3) = 3 - 6 = -3
f(0) = 3 - 2(0) = 3 - 0 = 3
f(5) = 3 - 2(5) = 3 - 10 = -7
f(2) = 3 - 2(2) = 3 - 4 = -1

From the given inputs, the input that generates the largest output when evaluating the function is f(0), which gives an output of 3.

The correct answer is f(0).

Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To evaluate the function f(x) = 3 - 2x for the given inputs, substitute the value of x into the function and solve for the output.

Let's evaluate the function for each input:

1. f(3): Substitute x = 3 into the function, f(x) = 3 - 2x:
f(3) = 3 - 2(3) = 3 - 6 = -3

2. f(0): Substitute x = 0 into the function, f(x) = 3 - 2x:
f(0) = 3 - 2(0) = 3 - 0 = 3

3. f(5): Substitute x = 5 into the function, f(x) = 3 - 2x:
f(5) = 3 - 2(5) = 3 - 10 = -7

4. f(2): Substitute x = 2 into the function, f(x) = 3 - 2x:
f(2) = 3 - 2(2) = 3 - 4 = -1

Now, to determine which input generates the largest output, we compare the values we obtained:

- f(3) = -3
- f(0) = 3
- f(5) = -7
- f(2) = -1

From the provided inputs, f(0) produces the largest output of 3.
