Missing part of question:
Draw a tape diagram to show how much cake each of the five children received.
Answer:
See attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Tape diagram to represent the scenario
Because one child is not hungry, the number of children to share the cake becomes 6.
So, first we calculate the share of each child.
See attachment for tape diagram
The tape diagram implies that:

Answer:
x >= -7 ................(1a)
x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = .............(0)
find the domain.
To find the (real) domain, we need to ensure that each term remains a real number.
which means the following conditions must be met
x+7 >= 0 .....................(1)
AND
x^2+2x-15 >= 0 ..........(2)
To satisfy (1), x >= -7 .....................(1a) by transposition of (1)
To satisfy (2), we need first to find the roots of (2)
factor (2)
(x+5)(x-3) >= 0
This implis
(x+5) >= 0 AND (x-3) >= 0.....................(2a)
OR
(x+5) <= 0 AND (x-3) <= 0 ...................(2b)
(2a) is satisfied with x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
(2b) is satisfied with x <= -5 ................(2b1)
Combine the conditions (1a), (2a1), and (2b1),
x >= -7 ................(1a)
AND
(
x >= 3 ...............(2a1)
OR
x <= -5 ................(2b1)
)
which expands to
(1a) and (2a1) OR (1a) and (2b1)
( x >= -7 and x >= 3 ) OR ( x >= -7 and x <= -5 )
Simplifying, we have
x >= 3 OR ( -7 <= x <= -5 )
Referring to attached figure, the domain is indicated in dark (purple), the red-brown and white regions satisfiy only one of the two conditions.
