No, it is not a function, since 6 is repeating itself and the x should never repeat if it’s a function.
Answer:
-|x|=-3
|x|=-3
|-x|=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step #1 for both: figure out which interval your x-value fits into.
For f(-2), x=-2 and -2 fits with x ≤ -2, the top interval.
For f(3), x=3 and 3 fits into -2 < x ≤ 3, the middle interval.
Step #2 for both, plug in your x-value to the piece of the function that fits with that interval.
For f(-2), we know x≤-2, so we use 2x+8 to evaluate x=-2.
For f(3), we know -2
f(-2) = 2(-2)+8 = -4+8 = 4
f(3) = (3)^2 -3 = 9-3 = 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Switching the order of the terms comes out as an equivalent expression.
<u>Whatever A is</u>, if we <u>multiply it by 8</u> and <u>add 2</u>, it will be <u>equivalent</u> to the sum of the <u>same number</u> times <u>multiplied by 8 and 2</u>.
I hope that helps!
