What point on the number line is -3 | -16 + 12 | Please give an explanation on the principles of absolute value with your answer.
Thank you!!!

- 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value always gives a positive result , that is

| - a | = | a | = a

Then

- 3 | - 16 + 12 |

= - 3 | - 4 |

= - 3 × 4

= - 12

answer:

(-8,7)

explanation:

we know that  

f

(

−

3

)

=

7

therefore, if we wish to get the output as 7, in the function, we need to have our input to be -3.

looking at the function  

f

(

x

+

5

)

, what should the value of x be, such that the input in the function becomes 7?

we simply equate the terms,

x

+

5

=

−

3

x

=

−

8

thus, the point on the new function would be  

(

−

8

,

7

)
