f(15)-f(-15)=?

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

it depends on the function

OpenStudy (agreene):

Because you are entering the positive value and the negative value in both eqn, if you were adding them, it would be 0. But since you are subtracting the negative value, it will be 2f(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

function is Let f(x){x if x>0 -x<0

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

in this case we have x - (-x) = 2x

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

putting the value 15 in 15 - (-15) = 30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help with absolute value

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let f(x)=(x+3) which of the following statements hold true A.f(x)=x-3ifx>3 B.f(x)<0 if x=0 C.f(x)=x-3 if x>0 D.f(x)=-(x-3) if x<3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the (x+3) at top are supposed the have straight lines on each side

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right that means that you take the magnitude or absolute value of whats inside the straight lines eg if the value of 'the inside' is -4 the absolute value is 4 whether -ve or +ve the +ve value is taken

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

now if x>3 f(x) > 6 so A is false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

if x = 0 what is f(x) equal to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

no x + 3 = 3 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yea

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

so that makes f(x) = mod ( x+3) = 3 (I used mod instead of the vertical lines)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

so B is false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

what about C if x = 1 say what does that make f(x) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right so is C correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help me with morw

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

well is C correct? C says f(x) = x -3 and x = 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like diffrent questions

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

no I need to leave bery soon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u give me the answer real fast

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

none are true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how is the graph of y=f(x)=absolute value of x transformed into the graph of g(x)=-2 absolute value of x-5 A.the graph is stretched vertically by the factor of 1/2 B.the graph is reflected about the x axis C.the graph is stretched vertically by a factor of 2 d.the graph is shifted horizonally 5 units to the right E.the graph is shifted horizonally 5 units to the left
