Recall

Linear modulus graphs and inequalities — objective 1

Maths4U Original · Short practice

\(f{\left(x \right)} = 4 \left|{x - 17}\right| + 1\). Here \(\displaystyle a=4, h=17, k=1, d=2\).

Find the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Enter one number or fraction. Keep exact values during your working; use at least six decimal places for an approximate final answer. A calculator may be used.
