15. When x = -3, what is the value of

Answer 1

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Solving for your equation:}$

$\mathbf{|4x^2| - 3x - (9 - |-3x|)}$

$\mathbf{= |(4)(9)|-(2)(-3)-(9-|(-3)(-3)|)}$

$\mathsf{= |36| - (2)(-3)- (9 - |(-3)(-3)|)}$

$\mathbf{=36 - (2)(-3) - (9 - |(-3)(-3)|)}$

$\mathbf{= 36 -(-6) - (9 - |(-3)(-3)|)}$

$\mathbf{= 42 - (9 - |(-3)(-3)|)}$

$\mathbf{= 42 - (9 - |9|)}$

$\mathbf{= 42 - (9 - 9)}$

$\mathbf{= 42 - (0)}$

$\mathbf{= 42 - 0}$

$\mathbf{= 42}$

$\huge\textbf{Notice that your equation kept getting}\\\huge\textbf{getting smaller and smaller?}\\\\\\\huge\textbf{That's because we kept solving as we got}\\\huge\textbf{closer to your result and we got there}\\\huge\textbf{sooner than we thought :)}$

$\huge\textsf{ANYWAY!}$

$\huge\textsf{Therefore, the answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{Option\ D. 42}}}\huge\checkmark$
