Answer: 12x-4, 14 counters, 8 more counters

Step-by-step explanation:  There are 2x yellow, 4x+6 red, and 6x-10 blue counters. We need to add all of this up to get the total number of counters. We first add the x's : 2x+4x+6x = 12x. Then we add the numbers. 6+ (-10) is -4. So, our expression is 12x-4. Next, we need to find out how many blue counters are in the bag. We know that there are 44 total counters and we need to find x because all the counters have x in them. 12x-4 = 44. We first add 4 to both sides to get 12x= 48 and x = 4. blue has 6x-10 counters so, blue has 24-10 = 14 counters. Red has 16+6 = 22 counters. 22-14 = 8 more counters

Evaluate the function.
Natali5045456 [20]
As you may already be familiar, these functions f(x) and g(x) are piecewise. They consist of multiple functions with different domains.

1. For #1, the given input is f(0). Since 0≤1, you should use the first equation to solve. f(0)=3(0)-1 ➞ f(0)=-1
2. Continue to evaluate the given input for the domains given. 1≤1, therefore f(1)=3(1)-1➞f(1)=2
3. 5>1, therefore f(5)=1-2(5)➞f(5)=-9
4. -4≤1; f(-4)=3(-4)-1➞f(-4)=-13
5. -3<0<1; g(0)=2
6. -3≤-3; g(-3)=3(-3)-1➞g(-3)=-10
7. 1≥1; g(1)=-3(1)➞g(1)=-3
8. 3≥1; g(3)=-3(3)➞g(3)=-9
9. -5≤-3; g(-5)=3(-5)-1➞g(-5)=-16

Hope this helps! Good luck!
