Question

|x−5|, if x>5 plz help me out

Answer 1

Answer: x-5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation

I'm assuming you want to simplify the expression. If not, then let me know otherwise.

The absolute value function f(x) = |x-5| is really two functions put together
f(x) = x-5 if
`x \ge 5`
OR
f(x) = -(x-5) if x < 5
notice how f(x) changes based on what x is. If x is either 5 or greater, then we pick the top portion. If x is smaller than 5, then we pick the bottom portion.

Since x > 5 (which is effectively the same as
`x \ge 5` without the "or equal to" part), we pick the top equation of the two parts mentioned above.

So that's why the answer is x-5
