Final answer:

To calculate f(2) for f(x) = 3x² - 5x, you substitute 2 into the equation resulting in f(2) = 2. The options provided do not include this result, suggesting a typo in the question since the correct answer is not listed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of f(2) for the function f(x) = 3x² - 5x, substitute x with 2:

f(2) = 3(2)² - 5(2)

f(2) = 3(4) - 10

f(2) = 12 - 10

f(2) = 2

The correct answer is B. 4. However, based on our calculation, the answer should actually be 2. There seems to be a typo in the question as none of the provided options match the calculated result.
