In a packet of spaghetti, one-third of the strands of spaghetti are intact, but the rest have each been snapped into two pieces. Of all the pieces of spaghetti from the
packet (broken and whole), what is the largest fraction guaranteed to be at least as
long as half an unbroken strand?

option a.

step-by-step explanation:

if you look closely at the graph, we can notice that the function is not defined at two different points.

if you look at functions b and c, you will notice that both functions are not defined at just one point. the function b is not defined at x= -5/2 and function c is not defined at x=-5. both options are discarded, given that our function should not be defined at two fiferent points.

now, if you look closely at the graph you will notice that the function sketched is not defined at x=5 and x=-2.
