If f(x) = |x + 6|, find f(−10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is basically saying find -10 +6

OpenStudy (micahm):

−16 16 −4 4 how do you solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-10 is what u put in for x and then you get what y is or F(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x) is y

OpenStudy (micahm):

this is Relations and Functions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know so your answer would what?

OpenStudy (micahm):

do I mulp or divid or add

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you add 6 to -10 what do you get?? then you would find the sqrt of that answer then you are done

OpenStudy (micahm):

-16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no your not making it a bigger negative because 6 isn't negative

OpenStudy (micahm):

16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no take 10 and minus 6 from it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is that answer

OpenStudy (micahm):

4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right it is the a negative tho when you r adding 6 to negative 10 so now you have -4 for find the square root of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the same*

OpenStudy (micahm):

so it -4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right it is the same as negative tho when you r adding 6 to negative 10 so now you have -4 for find the square root of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yes now what is the sqrt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

of -4

OpenStudy (micahm):

umm how you do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try using a calculator but the way i look at it is remember what number if mult. by itself with equal another number then that is the squareroot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will not with**

OpenStudy (micahm):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):
