<p>did anybody notice an error on one of the blank-response on math?</p>
<p>it gave f(x) and x then asked for f(a) > a or something like that</p>
<p>the question was easy but still an error</p>
<p>I noticed that too except I thought it gave f(x) and asked for something about an a. I don't get it either.</p>
<p>what was the answer for that?</p>
<p>f(x) = |3x -17 |</p>
<p>something like </p>
<p>f(a) < a - maybe it was f(a) > a</p>
<p>what is a possible answer?</p>
<p>8sparks11, it was f(a)<a, f(x) given</p>
<p>it should be 6 or greater or something</p>
<p>6 or greater? why would 5 not work?</p>
<p>|(3)(5) - 17 | = 2</p>
<p>a = 5</p>
<p>so ... 2<5 ??</p>
<p>it was greater than or equal to 1 i believe
so 6 would be make it exactly 1 and 7 would make it 4 and so on</p>
<p>I think I wrote my answer as 1 for that one...
Is that a possible answer? =/</p>
<p>so ... would 5 not work? although 5 gives you a negative answer it is the absolute value, so 15-17 = -2, but it will = 2 since it is absolute. So then 5 > 2? lol someone explain please im lost!</p>
<p>i believe 5 works, i put 5 because 2<5.</p>
<p>I put 5 ... at least I am really hoping I did. I really hope I did not mark 4 on that one.</p>
<p>I wrote 17/3?</p>
<p>is that okay?</p>
<p>lilblewskydragon, 1 doesnt work
|(3)(1)-17| = 14</p>
<p>STLFan it works since its greater than 5</p>
<p>Darn... can somebody clarify the question for me? I must've read it incorrectly =(</p>
<p>thanks chickenboi</p>
<p>I didn't want to waste any time so I set it equal to zero</p>
<p>f(x) = |3x-17|
when value of a is f(a) < a?
something like that</p>
<p>its 5 or greater</p>
<p>Crap I must've switched the inequality -_- I thought something was wrong with my answer... I should've checked it.</p>
<p>Pheww, I chose 5. Guess and check. <3</p>
