(a) Let's denote f(x) as y for simplicity. Then, the equation becomes y + 2y = 3x. Simplifying, we get 3y = 3x. Therefore, y = x. So, the solution to the equation is f(x) = x.
(b) Let's denote f(x) as y for simplicity. Then, the equation becomes y + y - 1/x = 2x. Simplifying, we get 2y = 2x + 1/x. Therefore, y = x + 1/(2x). So, the solution to the equation is f(x) = x + 1/(2x).
(c) This equation is a functional equation that involves trigonometric functions. It doesn't seem to have a simple solution like the previous equations.
