Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = LW

We know that the w = 2

We are told that the L (length) is three less than an unknown number so that mean L = (x - 3)

We are then told that the area = 22 square inches.

Area = LW

22 = (x - 3)2

Now solve for x

22 = (x - 3)2

Distribute the 2

22 = 2x - 6

22 + 6 = 2x

28 = 2x

28 / 2 = 2x / 2

14 = x

x = 14

Now take 14 and subtract 3

14 - 3 = 11

Unknown number = 11

Area  = LW

L = 11

W = 2

Area = 22

11 * 2 = 22

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of the function, f(x) = -2x (for x < -1), is only graphed correctly in the first and third graphs.

The second part of the function, f(x) = -1 (for -1 ≤ x < 2) is only graphed correctly in the first graph, which also correctly graphs the third part of the function,

The appropriate choice is the first graph.
