Here is what you’re looking for: Let ( f(x) = 5x - 32x^2 ). To find ( f(x) - f(2x) ), follow these steps:
1. Expression for ( f(x) ):
The function is given as:
[
f(x) = 5x - 32x^2
]
2. Expression for ( f(2x) ):
Substitute ( 2x ) in place of ( x ) in the function:
[
f(2x) = 5(2x) - 32(2x)^2 = 10x - 32 \cdot 4x^2 = 10x - 128x^2
]
3. Compute ( f(x) - f(2x) ):
Subtract the expression for ( f(2x) ) from ( f(x) ):
[
f(x) - f(2x) = (5x - 32x^2) - (10x - 128x^2)
]
Distribute and simplify:
[
f(x) - f(2x) = 5x - 32x^2 - 10x + 128x^2
]
Combine like terms:
[
f(x) - f(2x) = (5x - 10x) + (-32x^2 + 128x^2)
]
This reduces to:
[
f(x) - f(2x) = -5x + 96x^2
]
Now, looking at your options:
a. 52
b. (3 - 8x^4)
c. (3x^4)
d. (9x^4)
None of these directly match our result (-5x + 96x^2), indicating there might be an error in the options provided. However, our solution to the expression ( f(x) - f(2x) = -5x + 96x^2 ) should be considered correct based on the information provided.
If this is part of a larger context or there might be additional constraints, please verify the options or provide further context. @anonymous4
