Question

A function of the form 𝑓(𝑥)=𝑎|𝑥| contains the point (2,−2). What is the value of 𝑎 for this function?

Given:
The function is defined as
f(x)=ax f(x) = a|x|
and it contains the point (2, -2).

To find:
The value of 𝑎.

Solution

The question seems to be a bit jumbled, but I understand that you're asking for the value of 'a' in the function f(x) = a|x|, given that the point (2, -2) lies on the function.

The absolute value function, f(x) = a|x|, will always yield a positive output for any real number input, because the absolute value of any number is always positive or zero. Therefore, it's impossible for the function to contain the point (2, -2) because the y-coordinate is negative.

There seems to be a mistake in the problem. Please check the details again.
