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
The correct answer would be 3(7+1) because 7+1=8 and 8 times 3 equals 24. 24 divided by six is 4 plus 20 would also be 24.
The numbers are: 36 and 11 .

Explanation:
______________________________________________
Let us represent the TWO (2) numbers with the variables;
"x" and "y" .
__________________________________________
x + y = 47 .
y − x = 25.
__________________________________________
Since: " y − x = 25 " ;
Solve for "y" in terms of "x" ;
y − x = 25 ;
Add "x" to each side of the equation:
_____________________________________________
y − x + x = 25 + x ;
to get:
y = 25 + x .
Now, since:
x + y = 47 ;
Plug in "(25 + x)" as a substitution for "y"; to solve for "x" :
x + (25 + x) = 47 ;
x + 25 + x + 47 ;
2x + 25 = 47 ;
Subtract "25" from each side of the equation:
2x + 25 − 25 = 47 − 25 ;
2x = 22 ;
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "2" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
2x / 2 = 22 / 2 ;
x = 11 ;
______________________________________________
x + y = 47<span> ;
</span>Plug in "11" for "x" into the equation ; to solve for "y" ;
11 + y = 47 ;
Subtract "11" from EACH SIDE of the equation;
to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" ;
11 + y − 11 = 47 − 11 ;
y = 36 .
___________________________________________
So: x = 11 , y = 36 ;
___________________________________________
Let us check our work:
y − x = 25 ;
36 − 11 =? 25 ? Yes!
x + y = 47 ;
36 + 11 =? 47 ? Yes!
______________________________________________
The numbers are: 36 and 11 .

What is a linear equation in math?
- A linear equation only has one or two variables.
- No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1 or used as the denominator of a fraction.
- When you find pairs of values that make a linear equation true and plot those pairs on a coordinate grid, all of the points lie on the same line.
As per the statement -
A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:
Equation P: y + z = 6 ....[1]
Equation Q: 3y + 4z = 1 ....[2]
Multiply the equation [1] by -3 to both sides we have;
-3 .( y + z = 6 ) ⇒ -3y -3z = -18..........(3)
Add equation [2] and [3] to eliminate the y-term;
z = -17
Therefore, the possible step used in eliminating the y-term is, (y + z = 6) ⋅ −3
