Answer: A. 7

Concept:

Here, we need to understand the idea of evaluation.

When encountering questions that gave you an expression with variables, then stated: "If x = a, y = b, z = c" (a, b, c are all constants), this means you should substitute the value given for each variable back to the expression.

Solve:

Given Information

f(x) = 5x - 3

x = 2

Substitute the value into the function

f(2) = 5 (2) - 3

f(2) = 10 - 3

f(2) = 7

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions
