Question

Given b(x) = [X+41, what is b(-10)? – 10 -6 6 14

Answer 1

Option C: 6 is the value of $b(-10)$

Explanation:

The given expression is $b(x)=|x+4|$

We need to determine the value of $b(-10)$

To find the value of $b(-10)$, let us substitute $x=-10$ in the given expression.

Thus, substituting $x=-10$ in the expression, we have,

$b(-10)=|-10+4|$

Adding the terms, we get,

$b(-10)=|-6|$

Since, we know the absolute rule that $|-a|=a$ and the simplified expression is of the form $|-a|$ , let us apply the absolute rule in the simplified expression.

Thus, we have,

$b(-10)=6$

Thus, the value of $b(-10)$ is 6.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
