You can solve this problem through factoring.
First, you have the equation,

Then, you can factor the numerator.

You can cancel out the x-6 in both the numerator and the denominator because they would equal to just 1.
You are left with 
The function is removable noncontinuous at x=6 because if you plug in 6 in x-6, your denominator would be undefined.
Answer:
Alex will pay $3,662
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total cost, we can make an equation modeling y=mx+b, with y being the total cost, m being the monthly charges, x being the amount of time it takes, and b being the 10% down payment.
After plugging in the numbers to the equation, we get y=276(12)+350.
Now all that is left is to solve the equation as follows:
y=3,312+350
y=3,662
Answer:
a). -5.7 meters or 5.7 meters below sea level
b). When we combine the two depths we sum them since they are an increment in the same direction and we sum them from the seal level, our first reference point.
Step-by-step explanation:
a). Final depth=Initial depth+deeper increment=(-1.5)+(-4.2)=-5.7
Initial depth=-1.5 represented by a negative number since she is below sea level, meaning her reference point(point 0) is the sea level. The more she moves below the sea level the deeper she goes and the more her depth becomes negative
Deeper increment=-4.1, she further moves deeper from her initial depth(-1.5) by a value of -4.1. In order to find her final depth, we have to sum all the depths she covered from her first reference point which is the see level.
The expression is;
Final depth=Initial depth+deeper increment=(-1.5)+(-4.2)=-5.7 meters
Her final depth=-5.7 meters
b). When we combine the two depths we sum them since they are an increment in the same direction and we sum them from the seal level, our first reference point.
