Identify the value of a real parameter \(b\)
such that the graph of the function
\[
f(x) = \left |x -\frac{1}
{3}\right | + b
\]
corresponds to the picture.
Identify the optimal first step to solve the following equation. The operation is
intended to be used on both sides of the equation.
\[
3x + 2 = -5x + 1
\]
Identify the optimal first step to solve the following equation. The operation is
intended to be used on both sides of the equation.
\[
x + \frac{x}
{6} = \frac{x}
{15} + 1
\]
Let \([x,y]\)
be the solution of the system
\[\begin{aligned}
2x - y & = -1, & &
\\4x - y & = 1. & &
\end{aligned}\]
In the following list identify a true statement.
