Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the given problem, we need to evaluate the function \( f(x) = |x| + 10 \) for specific values of \( x \). The function involves the absolute value of \( x \), which means it will always return a non-negative value. We will substitute the given values into the function and compute the results.
Solution Approach
For \( f(0) \), substitute \( x = 0 \) into the function.
For \( f(9) \), substitute \( x = 9 \) into the function.
For \( f(-9) \), substitute \( x = -9 \) into the function.
Step 1: Evaluate \( f(0) \)
To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( x = 0 \) into the function \( f(x) = |x| + 10 \).
\[
f(0) = |0| + 10 = 0 + 10 = 10
\]
Step 2: Evaluate \( f(9) \)
To find \( f(9) \), substitute \( x = 9 \) into the function.
\[
f(9) = |9| + 10 = 9 + 10 = 19
\]
Step 3: Evaluate \( f(-9) \)
To find \( f(-9) \), substitute \( x = -9 \) into the function.
