Write the function representing the graph

The function representing the graph is described by two equations, depending on the "x" value

f(x) = (1/3)x + 3 , if x is greater than -3.

f(x) = -x - 5 , if x is less than -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to realize that the graph is described by two functions depending on the "x" value and that it is not defined in x= -3.

Then, for "x" values greater than -3, we look at the right line and we took 2 couple of points (-3,2) and (0,3). Using the formula for the slope and the interception with y axis

Slope = y2- y1 / x2- x1 = 3 - 2/ 0 - (-3) ⇒ slope = 1/3.

Interception with "y" axis y= 3

⇒ f(x) = (1/3) x + 3.

For "x" values minor than -3, we have to look the left line. Here we used the slope formula and points (-3, -2) and (-5, 0)

Slope = 0 - (-2)/ -5 - (-3) =-1. So, f(x) = -x + b.

Finally we use one of the points to replace in the formula of f(x) to find "b".

-2 = - (-3) + b ⇒ b = -5. ⇒ f(x) = - x -5

Summarizing, f(x) = (1/3)x + 3 , if x is greater than -3.

                      f(x) = -x - 5 , if x is less than -3.

4+3x is the answer

hope you got it

isocolese triangle

we know that the line connect a and b is the hyptonuse

so first find the hypotonuse length using the distance formula, call the length c

since it is an isocolese triangle, the lengths of the legs are the same

using pythagorean theorem,

in this case, a=b since isocolese triangle so we get

or

we can find c so we can find the distances

we know that if we draw 2 circles, each has center at a and b, and find where they intersect, we can the 2 possible locations for c

if a has center at (xa,ya) and b has center at (xb,yb), then we can solve where

and

intersect to find where they intersect

i'm not going to put an example because i have to go to class. i hope this explanation is enough
