What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by f(x)=|x+5|+7?

The vertex of the function f(x) = |x - a| is in (a, 0).

f(x) + a - shift the graph of function f(x) a units up.

Therefore:

The verex of y = |x + 5| is in (-5, 0).

The vertex of y + 7 = f(x) = |x + 5| + 7 is in (-5, 0 + 7) = (-5, 7).

answer is:

1.75 pounds

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
