Find the net change in the value of the function between the given inputs. f(x)=3x - 2 ; from 1 to 5

Step 1 ：Define the function \(f(x) = 3x - 2\)

Step 2 ：Calculate the value of the function at \(x = 1\), which is \(f(1) = 3(1) - 2 = 1\)

Step 3 ：Calculate the value of the function at \(x = 5\), which is \(f(5) = 3(5) - 2 = 13\)

Step 4 ：Subtract the value of the function at \(x = 1\) from the value at \(x = 5\) to find the net change, which is \(13 - 1 = 12\)

Step 5 ：Final Answer: The net change in the value of the function between the given inputs is \(\boxed{12}\)
