Math Problem Statement

Given: g(x) = 3x - 2. Find: g(2/3)

Solution

You are given the function g(x)=3x2g(x) = 3x - 2 and asked to find g(23)g\left(\frac{2}{3}\right).

To do this, substitute x=23x = \frac{2}{3} into the function:

g(23)=3(23)2g\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 3\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) - 2

Simplify the expression:

g(23)=22=0g\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 2 - 2 = 0

So, g(23)=0g\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 0.
