Answer:
{-5, -2}
Step-by-step explanation:
In a case like this please use parentheses to remove ambiguities. If I were to take your "x+5/x+2" literally, I'd have to write x plus 5/x plus 2.
I suspect that you actually meant (x + 5) / (x + 2), and will start with that.
First of all, this function is not defined at x = -5 or at x = -2. Thus, -5 and -2 are critical points.
Secondly, there may be one or more critical points beyond this. To find out, we have to differentiate (x+5)/(x+2):
(x + 2)(1) - (x + 5)(1)
f '(x) = ------------------------------
(x + 2)
Here it's clear that x cannot = -2, which would cause division by zero.
Thus, our critical values are {-5, -2}.

The answer the this is 0.23 pounds per container
<span>77.5% can also be written as 77.5/100, but if you're the mathematical notation police, people don't like decimals on a fraction, sooo, an equivalent form is: </span>
<span>
= (77.5)/(100) * (2/2)
= 155/200
= 31/40
= 0 31/40 </span>
