Answer:

[tex] \displaystyle a = 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a absolute value function

[tex] \displaystyle f(x) = a |x| [/tex]

we want to figure out the value of a

since we are a point which is on the function we can figure out a by using the point i.e (1,6) this point tell us when x is 1 f(x) is 6 thus

substitute:

[tex] \displaystyle 6= a \cdot |1| [/tex]

absolute value of any integer is positive therefore,

[tex] \displaystyle 6= a \cdot 1[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex] \displaystyle 6= a [/tex]

hence,

the value of a is [tex]\underline{\quad 6 \quad}[/tex]
