Let the number be x.

Half of that number  =  x / 2
One third of the number  =  x / 3

=  x / 2 + x / 3 = 22.  LCM  =  6.

= (3x + 2 x) / 6  = 22.

5x / 6 = 22.      Cross multiply

5x = 6 * 22.

5x = 132      Divide both sides by 5.

x =  132 / 5

x = 26.4

The number is 26.4.  Cheers.

Determine the x intercepts of the piecewise function in the image that I sent.
Amanda [17]

To find the x intercept of the function, we would find g(x) = 0

To do this, we would set each expression in the piecewise function to zero and solve for x. We have

For

x/3 + 2 = 0

let us multiply both sides of the equation by 3. We have

x/3 * 3 + 2 * 3 = 0 * 3

x + 6 = 0

x = - 6

- 6 is less than - 1

- 6 < - 1

It satisfies the inequality. Thus, x = - 6 is in the domain

For

4x - 2 = 0

adding 2 to both sides of the equation, we have

4x - 2 + 2 = 0 + 2

4x = 2

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4, we have

4x/4 = 2/4

x = 1/2

x = 1/2 is less than 1. It is not in the domain of this equation. Thus, there is no x interscept at x = 1/2

Therefore, the x intercept of the piecewise function is (- 6, 0)

What I did was 27.99-21.59 which equals 6.40 and then times that by 12 which brings you to 76.80

Not a robot! I don't think.

Y in the beginning goes up to 3.

Y in the end goes down to -2 before shooting back up in an infinite sense.

Increasing: The beginning and the end the line on the graph. (Also the jump in the middle, the round part.)

Decreasing: The middle of the graph. (The jump, downward slope.)

Constant, Y at the near end going in a straight line from 9-12 at a -2.

End behavior: Decide for yourself. Is the line going up without fault at the end an appearing continuous or a discontinuous line?
