When the burner is off there is no energy being produced.
Once you turn the burner in it begins creating energy which is used to cook.
The answer is: newly created energy that was not present earlier.
The equation would be y = -5/2x - 14. Since the slope and a coordinate pair was given, I used point slope form to figure out the equation.
Work:
y - 6 = -5/2 (x+8)
y - 6 = -5/2x - 20
+ 6 +6
______________
y = -5/2x - 14
The graph of the piecewise function includes
(1) a straight line passing through point (-3, 0) and stopping at point (0, 3) with an unshaded small circle at the end of point (0, 3) and an arrow at the other end.
(2) a shaded small circle at point (0, 5), and
(3) a straight line starting at the point (0, -1) and passing through the point (2, 3) with an unshaded small circle at the point (0, -1) and an arrow at the other end.
There are two other fine ways to write 11/5 .
Ten of those fifths make 2 wholes, so 11/5 can be written as<u> 2 and 1/5</u> .
Or you could do the division that the fraction shows.
Divide 11 by 5, and find the other way to write it . . . . . <u>2.2</u> .
