It's a good thing that the domain is confined or the graph is. That function is undefined if x < - 3
At exactly x = - 3, f(x) = 0 and that's your starting point.
So look what happens to this graph. If x = 0, f(0) = y = 3. So we are starting to see that as x get's larger so does f(x). The graph tells us that x = 0 is bigger than x = - 3.
Let's keep on plugging things in.
As x increases to 5, f(5) = 5. x = 5 is larger than x = 0, and f(5) > 3.
One more and then we'll start drawing conclusions. If x = 9 then f(9) = y = 6.
x = 9 is larger than x = 5. f(9) = 6 is just larger than f(5) which is 5
OK I think we should be ready to look at answers. There's nothing there that makes the answer anything but a. Let's find out what the problem is with the rest of the choices.
B
The problem with B is that as x increases, f(x) does not decrease. We didn't find one example of that. So B is wrong.
C
C has exactly the same problem as B.
D
The second statement in D is incorrect. As x increases f(x) never decreases. No example showed that.
The answer is A <<<< Answer.
The first thing you do is go two space forward like start at the o and move two spaces forward you put a decimal at 9 like this 0.90 and that's how you do it
Hello!
We are given the weight of Mia's dog and told to find the weight of Lettie's dog based on the known relationship. Using these given values, we can create the following equation (let "w" represent the total weight of Lettie's dog):
w = 32.6(3.8)
Simplify the right side of the equation:
w = 123.88
We have now proven that Lettie's dog weighs 123.88 lbs.
I hope this helps!
