I'm guessing the last value you have down there that got cut off was the one we want. We need to set up the general form of the absolute value equation and then solve it for a:
![y=a[x-h]+k](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3Da%5Bx-h%5D%2Bk)
. I have no absolute value symbols so I just used brackets. We have a vertex (h, k) of (0, 0) and I picked a point on the graph to use as my x and y coordinates (4, 3). Let's fill in the equation now:
![0=a[0-4]+3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0%3Da%5B0-4%5D%2B3)
. We will subtract 3 from both sides leaving -3 = a[-4]. The absolute value of -4 is 4 so now we have -3 = 4a. Divide by 4 to solve for a.
. So our equation is
![y=- \frac{3}{4}[x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D-%20%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%5Bx%5D%20)

just cut all of them in half
Correct question:
Evaluate and simplify the expression when a = 3 and b = 2,
given expression = 3b-2(1 - b)a - 2
Answer:
3b-2(1 - b)a - 2 at the given values is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
3b-2(1 - b)a - 2
The expression is simplified as;
3b-2(1 - b) a - 2 = 3b - 2a(1 - b) - 2
= 3b - 2a + 2ab - 2
When a = 3 and b = 2; then, substitute these values in the simplified expression above;
3b - 2a + 2ab - 2 = 3(2) - 2(3) + 2(3 x 2) - 2
= 6 - 6 + 12 - 2
= 10
Therefore, 3b-2(1 - b)a - 2 at the given values is 10.
Answer:
1 foot = 30.48 centimeters
1 yard = 91.44 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 2.54 centimeters in an inch, and 12 inches in a foot, then you need to multiply 2.54 by 12.
Their are 36 inches in a yard so you need to multiply 2.54 by 36
