If 2f(x) − 3f(1/x) = x² (x ≠ 0), then f(2) is equal to(a) −7/4(b) 5/2(c) −1(d) none of these
Find f(2) Find \( f(2) \) Question: If \[ 2f(x)-3f\left(\frac1x\right)=x^2 \qquad (x\ne0) \] then \( f(2) \) is equal to (a) \(-\frac74\) (b) \(\frac52\) (c) \(-1\) (d) none of these Solution: Replace \(x\) by \(\frac1x\), \[ 2f\left(\frac1x\right)-3f(x)=\frac1{x^2} \] Given, \[ 2f(x)-3f\left(\frac1x\right)=x^2 \] Solving, \[ -5f(x)=\frac3{x^2}+2x^2 \] \[ f(x)=-\frac15\left(\frac3{x^2}+2x^2\right) \] Put \(x=2\), \[ f(2) = -\frac15\left(\frac34+8\right)
