Answer: c) 3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Plug in y = -9 and the given x-value to see if it makes a true statement.
a) -4.5 falls in the piecewise function x < -3 --> y = -x
y = -x
-9 = -(-4.5)
-9 = 4.5 FALSE
b) -3 falls in the piecewise function -3 ≤ x ≤ -2 --> y = 2x
y = 2x
-9 = 2(-3)
-9 = -6 FALSE
c) 3 falls in the piecewise function x > -2 --> y = -x²
y = -x²
-9 = -(-3)²
-9 = -9 TRUE
d) 9 falls in the piecewise function x > -2 --> y = -x²
y = -x²
-9 = -(9)²
-9 = -81 FALSE
There will be five rows of 8 bean plants per row, four rows of 8 tomato plants per row, and four rows of 4 tomato plants per row. I hope this helps!
Answer:
6.7-(-2.5)=9.2 6.7+(-2.5)=4.2 Neither
2.5 + 6.7 6.7 - 2.5 2.5 - 6.7
-2.5 + 6.7 -2.5 - 6.7
-6.7 + 2.5
