The function given is


f(x)=15-3x

We were asked to find all real values of x such that


f(x)=0

Therefore,

We will equate both values of f(x) together to get


15-3x=0

Subtract 15 from both sides


\begin{gathered} 15-15-3x=0-15 \\ -3x=-15 \\ \text{divide both sides by -3,} \\ (-3x)/(-3)=(-15)/(-3) \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

Therefore,

The value of x = 5
