Answer:
Tyler.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 bag with 48 candies, 2 with 24 candies, 3 with 16 candies, 4 with 12 candies, 6 with 8 candies, 8 bags with 6 candies, 12 with 4, 16 with 3 each, 24 with 2, and 48 with 1
Simply substitute the value of
3
given. In other words,
f
(
3
)
is the function of
f
(
x
)
, however, in this case,
x
is
3
f
(
3
)
=
3
(
3
)
−
4
Distribute
3
through the parenthesis
f
(
3
)
=
9
−
4
Simplify
f
(
3
)
=
5
Answer:
Given the function in the question
f(x) = |x-3| + 2
a) state the name of the function
Absolute value function
since it is similar to f(x) = |x|
b) identify the independent and dependent variable
x = independent variable (input variable)
f(x) or y = dependent variable (output variable)
The variable which we assign the value we call the independent variable, and the other variable is the dependent variable, since it value depends on the independent variable.
c) identify the rule
A function is an equation that has only one answer for y for every x.
d) evaluate the function
given x = -5
f(-5) = |-5 - 3| + 2
= |-8| + 2
= 8 +2
= 10
