Answer: -1
Step-by-step explanation: f(x) is another way of saying y. So when y is 3, according to the table, x is -1
Answer: 
This translates to "y is any real number such that it is 0 or larger".
The reasoning is that the result of any absolute value function is either 0 or positive. In other words, we'll never get a negative result of an absolute value function. This is due to how absolute value represents distance. Negative distance does not make sense.
So if y = |x-3| then y = 0 is the smallest output possible. We could have any positive output we want.
In terms of a graph (see below), the V shape is at the lowest point (3,0). The y coordinate is all we care about in terms of finding the range. So we see the lowest y value is y = 0.
"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is
... (longest side)/(shortest side)
Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.
"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...
... c/a = a/r
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...
... r
The answer is L = 59 + 2(d). If we plug in our numbers, we will get L = 59 + 2(32). 2*32 is 64, and if you add 59 you get 123 miles.
This isn’t apart of the question, but 59 would be the y-intercept. 2 miles per day (2/1) is the slope.
