If we let x as the number of years of service in the company and f(x) as the increase in the wage, the step wise function that describes the scenario is
f(x) = { 0.5, x < 3
{ 1.0, 3 ≤ x < 6
{ 1.5, 6 ≤ x < 9
{ 2.0, 9 ≤ x < 12
The point (2, 12) represents the wage increase of x < 12

THE ANSWER IS C. 31 INCHES
1/2 + 9/20 = 19/20
1/20 + 1/10 = 3/20
1/8 + 11/16 = 13/16
2/9 + 5/9 = 7/9
3/20 + 3/4 = 18/20 = 9/10
7/17 + 1/17 = 8/17
Answer: -8
Step-by-step explanation:
6+ -8 = -2
