The function f is not defined for x = 0, but for all non zero
real numbers x,
f(x)+2f(1x)=3xf(x) + 2f(\frac{1}{x}) = 3x
The equation
f(x)=f(−x)f(x) = f( - x) is satisfied by

Show answer and solution
f(x)=2x−x⇒f(x)=f(−x)f(x) = \frac{2}{x} - x \Rightarrow f(x) = f( - x)
⇒2x−x=−2x+x⇒x=±2\Rightarrow \frac{2}{x} - x = \frac{- 2}{x} + x \Rightarrow x = \pm \sqrt{2}
