Madison lives near the ocean. She’s formed a hypothesis that increased concentrations of salt in the air speeds the corrosion of certain metals. If Madison plans to test this hypothesis, she will have to deal with the following variables in her experiment:

several tissues working together form an organ, and several organs together make up an organisms.

the group of cell that carries out special jobs are tissue.

answer-

the statement that f(x) = |x+a| + b has exactly one x-intercept is sometimes correct.

solution-

it solely depends on b, whether the function will have one or two or zero x intercept.

this plot of the given function, f(x) = |x+a| + b will be the basic absolute value graph i.e v shape, with vertex translated to (-a, b), instead of origin.

1-   if b is zero, the graph will have exactly one x-intercept, at x= -a

2- if b is positive, the whole graph will be above the x-axis, hence it will have no x-intercepts.

3- if b is negative, the graph will be below the x-axis, hence it will have two x-intercepts.

∴ the statement is sometimes true.
