The answer would be -13=13. Its just telling you to write an equation by usiing the absolute value
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression can be rearranged to ...
b = 3 -9/(a+5)
In order for b to be an integer, (a+5) must be an integer divisor of 9. There are exactly 6 of those: ±1, ±3, ±9.
The attached table shows the values (a, b) = (x₁, f(x₁)).
-3(b - 7)
Distributive property
-3*b = -3b
-3*7 = -21
-3b + 21
Answer: -3b + 21
