Week 3 in Precalc 11

Tell:

This week we just started to learn “Absolute Value and Radicals”. One thing that I have learned so far is how to solve an equation that is given with negative numbers and the sum will be positive, when place inside |  |  Absolute value braces / symbols.

Show:

here is one equation that I was stuck on because I didn’t place the right signs besides the numbers, which was giving me the wrong answer.

Explain:

In this equation you plug in -3 where there is an x. The equation becoming -3^3 and -5(-3), getting results from those then solve the final equation. Equation will become a positive due to being inside the Absolute value braces.
