Jacob had some candy to give to his five children. He first took six pieces for himself and then evenly divided the rest among his children. Each child received three pieces. With how many pieces did he start?

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if each of his 5 children got 3, then there were 15 candies before he divided them. And to get before he took 6 candies for himself, add 6 to 15 to get 21

P.S. Jacob is greedy. He took a lot of candy

step-by-step explanation:

if it takes 8 pounds to make 12 divide 12 by 8 and you get 1.5, 1.5 x 16 = 24

step-by-step explanation:

given the function as;

write the equation replacing f(x) with y

form   and fill a table containing values of y with corresponding values of x

you can take a range for   values of x as -3≤x≤3

solving for x=-3

for x=-2

repeat the same procedure to get the values of y for the remaining ,x=-1 to x=3

plot the values of y against values   of x and obtain the following graph
