True
1/2 (up the hill) - 1/2 (down the hill) = 0
I was confused at first until I realized that you'd shared not one, not two, but three questions in one post. would you please post just one question at a time to avoid this.
I'll focus on your second question only: Solve <span>3 + |2x - 4| = 15.
Subtr. 3 from both sides. Result: |2x - 4| = 12
Divide all terms by 2, to reduce: |x - 2| = 6
Case 1: x-2 is already +, so we don't need | |:
x - 2 = 6 => x = 8 (first answer)
Case 2: x-2 is negative, so |2x-4| = -(2x-4) = 6
Then -2x + 8 = 6. Subtr. 8 from both sides: -2x = -2
Div both sides by -2: x = 1 (second answer)
Be sure to check these results by subst. them into the original equation.
Please post your other questions separately. Thanks and good luck!

Answer is number 2
F(3)= (3-1)^2+ 3(3)=4+9= 13 so the first option is wrong
F(-2)= (-2-1)^2+ 3(-2)= 9-6=3 third options is wrong
F(-15)= (-15-1)^2 +3(-15)= 256-45= 211 fourth option is wrong
The correct answer is 43.75
