Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:
In the graph we have a piecewise function composed of a parabola and a line.
The parabola has the vertex in the point (0, 2) and cuts the y-axis in y = 2.
The equation of this parabola is
Then we have an equation line
Note that the interval in which the parabola is defined is from -∞ to x = 1. Note that the parabola does not include the point x = 1 because it is marked with an empty circle " о ."
(this is
)
Then the equation of the line goes from x = 1 to ∞ . In this case, the line includes x = 1 because the point at the end of the line is represented by a full circle
.
(this is
)
Then the function is:

The first bullet is the answer
Answer:
A carbon atom.
Step-by-step explanation:
All carbon atoms have 6 protons however the amount of neutrons can vary but doesnt change the element.
The simplification of the expression is 28. The mistake in your calculation occurred in step 3.
<h3>What is the process involved in simplifying expression involving brackets?</h3>
TO simplify expressions involving brackets, we use a common method called BODMAS (Brackets, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, and Subtraction).
This means that we will first solve the expression in brackets first, followed by division, multiplication, addition, and subtraction as the case may be.
Now, from the given information, we have:
= 22+6[(14-5)÷3(17-14)]
solving parameters in the bracket first, we have:
= 22 + 6[(9) ÷3(3)]
= 22 + 6[(9) ÷9]
- The above step is where you missed it from your calculation, you must first open all brackets within brackets before solving them.
= 22 + 6[(9) ÷9]
= 22 + 6[ 1]
= 22 + 6
= 28
