Answer:

For the value of 4.

Explanation:

Given,

f(x)=3x-1 -----(1),

g(x)=2x-3 ------(2),

From equation (1),

f(2) = 3(2) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5, ----(3)

If, g(x)=f(2)

From equation (2) and (3),

2x - 3 = 5

2x = 8 ( Additive property of equality )

x = 4 ( Division property of equality )

Hence, for the value of x equal to 4, g(x) = f(2) is true.
