Smaller Number = X
5x - 23 = Larger Number
X + (5x - 23) = 61
6x - 23 = 61
6x = 84
X = 14
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
3 3/4= 3.75.
3.75-2=1.75
1.75+5.5=7.25 or 7 1/4

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the piecewise function:

And we want to find f(8).
Since our input value is 8, choose the equation that fits our input.
The first equation demand x to be less than 3. 8 is not less than 3, so we won't use that.
The second equation demand x to e greater than or equal to 3 and less than 8. 8 is <em>not</em> less than 8. So, we won't use that.
The third equation demands x to be greater than or equal to 8. 8 is greater than or equal to 8, so we'll use the third equation.
So:


There're nothing more to do, we're done :)
The answer is A.
