well, we know the piece-wise function is 
hmmm so what's f(-1), namely what is f(x) when x = -1?
well, when x = -1, hmm -1 is less than 0, so the subfunction that applies to that will be when "x" is less than 0, namely the part of 7x + 10, so we can say
f(-1) = 7(-1) + 10
f(-1) = 3
so hmm what's f(0) or namely, what's f(x) when x = 0?
well, what subfunction applies when x = 0? well, it has to be the subfunction with "x greater or <u>equals</u> to 0", x ⩾ 0, so then is 7x + 20
f(0) = 7(0) + 20
f(0) = 20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the number of dimes. Then 81-d is the number of nickels and the total value in cents is ...
10d +5(81-d) = 530
5d +405 = 530 . . . eliminate parentheses
d +81 = 106 . . . . . divide by 5
d = 25 . . . . . . . . . subtract 81; number of dimes
81 -d = 81 -25 = 56 . . . . . number of nickels
There are 25 dimes and 56 nickels in the box.

<em>Comment on the method of solution</em>
It usually works well to let the variable represent the amount of the highest-value contributor (dimes). This keeps the numbers positive as the solution progresses.
5 x 9 =45
6 x 10=60
45/60 simplify by dividing in 15
3/4
I believe the only true one is B.
