SAT Question 75915e3c: Nonlinear Functions answer and explanation with Desmos solution

Choice C is correct. The value of $f(2)$ is found by evaluating the expression $2(3^x)$ when $x=2$. Substituting $2$ for $x$ in the given equation yields $f(2)=2(3^2)$. Simplifying $3^2$ in the equation results in $f(2)=2\times 9$. Evaluating the right-hand side of the equation yields $f(2)=18$. Therefore, the value of $f(2)$ is $18$.
