Answer 1

Option B. 7

Explanation:

Hello!

We can solve this by plugging in -2, in the equation
`\boldf(x) =`

Solve:

• f(x) = |1 - 3x|
• f(-2) = |1 - 3(-2)|
• f(-2) = |1 + 6|
• f(-2) = |7|
• f(-2) = 7

Remember:

• In an absolute value equation, a negative value turns positive
• In an absolute value equation, a positive value stays positive
