Question

Help and explain please :)))))))

Answer 1

13.1

Explanation:

f(x) = 3|x|- 1, x= 4.7

f(4.7) = 3|4.7|- 1 *replace x with 4.7

= 14.1 - 1. *multiply 3 x 4.7

= 13.1. *subtract 1 from. 14.1

Answer 2

f(4.7) = 13.1

Explanation:

essentially this is just 3x-1

plug in 4.7 for x... 3*4.7 = 14.1 then subtract 1 =

13.1

the issue is the || absolute value...

if the "X" x value is NEGATIVE in the problem, just remove the negative sign...

in other words f(-4.7) = 3(4.7) - 1
