Answer:

Jagdeeep

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Asmaa bought the socks at store A, and Jagdeeep bought socks at store B.

________________________________________________________

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Asmaa bought 3 pairs for 9.96

To find the cost of one pair, you divide 9.96 by 3

9.96 ÷ 3 = 3.32

Each pair of socks at Store A costs 3.32

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jagdeep bought 5 pairs for 14.75

To find the cost of one pair, you divide 14.75 by 5

14.75 ÷ 5 = 2.95

Each pair of socks at Store B costs 2.95

2.95 < 3.32, store B had a better deal.

Jagdeeep got a better deal.

Piecewise functions have different definitions, depending on when you evaluate them.

Given an input x, your function returns:

2x if the input is negative
1 if the input lies between 0 (included) and 2 (excluded)
the square root of x if the input is greater than 2 (included)

You want to know what f(0) is. In other words, you want to know what happens if we give 0 as input.

The piecewise definition tells us that, if the input is 0, the function outputs 1.

So, you have f(0) = 1.

Which is another way to check the sum of 104+34+228+877?

Alex787 [66]

The answer is digit sum method.

Digit sum method is method used to check the sum of sum numbers. If the sum of all of the digits of numbers is equal to the sum of all of the digits of the total sum, then the arithmetic process was correct.

We need to check the sum of 104+34+228+877:
104 + 34 + 228 + 877 = 1243

Let's first summarize the digits of individual numbers:
104 *** 1 + 0 + 4 = 5
34 *** 3 + 4 = 7
228 *** 2 + 2 + 8 = 12 *** 1 + 2 = 3
877 *** 8 + 7 + 7 = 22 *** 2 + 2 = 4

Now, let's sum these sums:
5 + 7 + 3 + 4 = 19 *** 1 + 9 = 10 *** 1 + 0 = 1

Then, let's summarize the digits of the total sum:
1243 *** 1 + 2 + 4 + 3 = 10 *** 1 + 0 = 1

Since the sums of the digits on the both sides of equation is 1, than the arithmetic process was correct and the sum of 104 + 34 + 228 + 877 is really 1243.
