Question

What is f(-3) if f(x) =|2x-1|-5

Answer 1

Answer:

f(-3) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

F(x) = |2x-1|-5

f(x) = |2*(x)-1|-5

f(-3) = |2*(-3)-1|-5 ... replace every x with -3

f(-3) = |-6-1|-5

f(-3) = |-7|-5

f(-3) = 7-5

f(-3) = 2 which is the final answer

Side Note: the vertical bars mean "absolute value" which represents distance. Negative distance makes no sense which is why absolute value results are never negative.
