I don't know what I'm doing wrong here, can anyone help?

if you look at the part where the first part connects with the second part:

y = 5 if x < - 2

y = -2x + 1 if  -2 ≤ x < 1

we don't have a discontinuity there, so there shouldn't be a dot.

<h3></h3><h3>What is wrong with the graph?</h3>

When we graph over intervals like (a, b) or [a, b] or something like that, we use dots to define the end of the intervals, and to denote that the function ends abruptly or we have a jump.

In this case, you can see that between the end and the second part and the beginning of the third part there is a jump, so the use of dots is correct there, but if you look at the part where the first part connects with the second part:

y = 5 if x < - 2

y = -2x + 1 if  -2 ≤ x < 1

we don't have a discontinuity there, so there shouldn't be a dot.

That is the only error with the graph.

How many math books and English books did Nicole purchase?
Ksju [112]
Create a system if equations to solve this.

First equation:
25m + 24e = 220

Second equation:
m + e = 9

Then you must solve the second equation for a variable.

Change m + e = 9 to e = 9 - m.

Then substitute (9 - m) for e in the first equation.

So 25m +24e = 220 becomes 25m + 24(9 - m) = 220.

Now you can solve the first equation because the only variable in it is m.

25m + 24(9 - m) = 220 (Original equation)
25m + 216 - 24m = 220 (Distribute)
m + 216 = 220 (Combine like terms)
m = 4 (Simplify)

Now plug in 4 for m in the second equation.

m + e = 9 (Original equation)
(4) + e = 9 (Substitute)
e = 5 (Simplify)

m represents Math Books and e represents English Books, so Nicole purchased 4 Math Books and 5 English Books.

A department store is having a 15% off sale on all winter coats. You purchase a winter coat for $275. The department store is lo
sergeinik [125]

$275*.15(15%)=41.25 (this is the amount of the discount)

$275-$41.25=$233.75 (cost of jacket after discount)

$233.75* .0725=$16.946(round to $16.95, this is the amount of the sales tax).

If you want to know the total cost after tax just add $16.95 to the discounted price of $233.75. The price you pay for the jacket is $250.70.
