If x>4, then the quantity x-3 inside the absolute value symbol is already positive. So, in this case, |x-3| => x-3, and x-3 is all you need to write.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first start with the unit rate of how many metric tons each person eats per year, then we will convert metric tons to kg.
5.03/313 = .0160702875 metric tons of bananas per person
Using the conversion given:
.0160702875 metric tons × 
= 16.07 kg per person of bananas
It's simple,
f(x)=x^2+2
is the formula that you start with
you are then given f(x). f(4x)
you then plug in 4x
4x=(4x)^2+2
you then solve for x
4x=16x+2
-16x. -16x
-12x=2
÷-12. ÷-12
x=0.16 is your answer
A car can travel for a distance of 350 miles in = 20 gallons
The car can travel for a distance of 1 mile in = (20/350) gallons
= 2/35 gallons
Then
The same car can travel for a distance of 875 miles in = (2/35) * 875 gallons
= 1750/35 gallons
= 50 gallons
So it can be seen that 50 gallons of gasoline is required to travel for a distance of 875 miles. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
