B. 5
C. 4
D. 9


Sagot :

To find the value of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] for the function [tex]\( f(x) = 5(4x - 9) \)[/tex] when [tex]\( f(x) = 75 \)[/tex], follow these steps:

1. Start with the given function and set it equal to 75:
[tex]\[ 5(4x - 9) = 75 \][/tex]

2. Next, divide both sides of the equation by 5 to simplify:
[tex]\[ 4x - 9 = \frac{75}{5} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 4x - 9 = 15 \][/tex]

3. To isolate the term with [tex]\( x \)[/tex], add 9 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\[ 4x - 9 + 9 = 15 + 9 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 4x = 24 \][/tex]

4. Finally, solve for [tex]\( x \)[/tex] by dividing both sides by 4:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{24}{4} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ x = 6 \][/tex]

So, the value of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is [tex]\( 6 \)[/tex].

Thus, the correct answer is [tex]\( \boxed{6} \)[/tex].
