Question

minimum value of |17x-8| -9 is ?

Answer 1

I think it's -9 cuz if u put any value of x either positive or negative it will give some value which will be inside the modulus.
so it doesn't matter if the value is positive or negative mod will make the value positive
eg
let's take x=-1
therefore
=|17(-1)-8| -9
=|-25|-9
= 25-9
= 16
now put x=17/8 so value will be
=|17(17/8)-8|-9
=0-9
=-9
which could be the least value
hope it helps
