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

- ST = 23
- RU = 8
- SV = 5
- SU = 10
====================================================
Explanation:
Focus on triangles SVT and UVT.
They are congruent triangles due to the fact that SV = VU and VT = VT. From there we can use the LL (leg leg) theorem for right triangles to prove them congruent.
Since the triangles are the same, just mirrored, this means ST = UT = 23.
-----------------------
Following similar reasoning as the previous section, we can prove triangle RVU = triangle RVS.
Therefore, RS = RU = 8
-----------------------
SV = VU = 5 because RT bisects SU.
Bisect means to cut in half. The two smaller pieces are equal.
-----------------------
SU = SV + VU = 5+5 = 10
Refer to the segment addition postulate.
