If the sum of two numbers is x

Then the equation is like this:

a+b = x

Then it says one of the number is 12. Change either a or b into 12

12 + b =x

If we want to find the other number, we need the make it into the subject

b = x - 12

Hope that help.

Y would be the other unknown number.

12 + Y = X

12-12+Y=X-12

Y=X-12

What is the range of the function f(x) = |x| – 3?

Likurg_2 [28]

Why not draw the graph of y=|x|? It has a v-shape, and the vertex is at (0,0).

The graph of f(x) = |x| - 3 looks exactly the same, EXCEPT that the whole graph of |x| is shifted 3 units downward. The smallest value that y can have is therefore -3.

Can you now figure out the range of f(x)?
