help me please and thank you

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.

we have been given a piecewise function which has three parts

we can graph each part one by one.

first part is x+1 which is just like equation y=x+1

restriction with first part is x< 0 so that means we can use any number for x which is less than 0 for example x=-1 and x=-2

now plug x=-1 into y=x+1 to get y

y=x+1=-1+1=0

so the point will be (-1,0)

similarly we get another point (-2,-1)

now we graph a line joining both points but keep in mind that line must be on left side of x=0 because of restriction x< 0

same way we can graph 2nd and third parts

if we have < or > then we use open circle.

if we have < = or > = then we use close circle.

so using above information, final graph can be drawn as:
