<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

<h2>Why?</h2>

To answer the question, we need to find which piecewise function contains the graphs shown in the picture, we have that first line shown, is decreasing and exists from the negative numbers to 0,  and the line cuts the x-axis and the y-axis at "-2", for the second line shown,  we have that is decreasing but exists from 0 (including it) to the the positive numbers.

So, finding which piecewise satisfies the function shown, we have:

- First piecewise function:

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

First line,

We have the first line,

-x-2

The variable has a negative coefficient (-1), meaning that the function (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exists from all the numbers less than 0, to 0, and it cuts the x-axis at -2 and the y-axis at -2.

Second line,

\frac{x}{2}\geq 0

The variable has positive coefficient, meaning that the function (line) is increasing.

Hence, since the second line is not decreasing, the piecewise function is not the piecewise function shown in the picture.

- Second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

First line,

We have the first line,

-x-2

The variable has a negative coefficient (-1), meaning that the function (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exist from all the numbers less than 0, to 0.

Second line,

-\frac{x}{2}\geq 0

The variable has a negative coefficient ((-\frac{1}{2}), meaning the the unction (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exists from 0 (including it) to the positive numbers.

Hence, we have that the correct option is the second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

Note: I have attached a picture for better understanding.

Have a nice day!

5. What is the range? Explain. (1 point)
pav-90 [236]

The range of the given graph is [5, ∞).

Range.

Range refers the set of possible output values, and if we have the graph, then the set of all possible y values on the graph is defined as the range.

Given,

Here we have the graph.

Through the given graph we have to find the range of the line.

As per the definition of range, we have identified that the range take the value of y axis.

While we lookin into the given graph, we have identified that the starting point of the line is

=> (0, 5)

In this point 0 refers the x coordinate and 5 refers the y coordinate. So, the starting range is 5.

And the end of the line is not pointed.

So, we can consider that this line goes infinitely.

So, the range of the graph is  [5, ∞).

To know more about Range here.

Write an equation of the line that passes through (18, 2) and is parallel to the line 3y−x=−12
miskamm [114]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmmm what's the slope of the line above anyway?

\bf 3y-x=-12\implies 3y=x-12\implies y=\cfrac{x-12}{3}\implies y = \cfrac{x}{3}-\cfrac{12}{3} \\\\\\ y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x-4\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through (18,2)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{18}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{18}) \\\\\\ y-2=\cfrac{1}{3}x-6\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x-4
