Robin has to go shopping for her brother's birthday.
She already bought "x" presents for him.
The next day, Robin bought "2" more presents for him just in time for his birthday.
When she got home and celebrated his birthday, her beother opened, in total, "9" presents.
--- What is the number of presents that Robin had originally purchased? ---
Let the legs of the triangle be a and b, and the hypotenuse c.
Your first instinct might tell you to use the Pythagorean theorem to go about solving this because

. This works, but it is slow.
The fastest way to solve this is to recognize that the right triangle is a special triangle where the ratio of the sides are 3:4:5. This means that if the legs are 9 and 12, then the hypotenuse is 15 because 3*3 is 9, 3*4 is 12, and 3*5 is 15.
Answer:
f(-3) = -2
f(-2.6) = -2
f(0.6) = 2.4
f(4.5) = 8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(Whole question:
Evaluate the piecewise function for the given values.
Find f(-3), f(-2,6), f(0.6), and f(4.5) for f(x)={ -2 If x ≤ 0 4x. If 0 <x <1. x + 4. If x ≥ 1)
As the piecewise function shows, the function f(x) has the value of -2 for values of x lesser or equal than 0, has the value of 4x if the value of x is between 0 and 1, and has the value of x+4 for values of x greater or equal than 1.
So, for f(-3), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2
For f(-2.6), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2
For f(0.6), the value of x is between 0 and 1, so we have that f(0.6) = 4*0.6 = 2.4
For f(4.5), the value of x is greater than 1, so we have that f(4.5) = 4.5 + 4 = 8.5
