### Scaling a Graph
**For Domain:**
- **Identify the relevant range**: First, determine the input values (the x-values) that are relevant to the data you are plotting.
- **Choose an appropriate scale**: Depending on the range of your x-values, choose a scale that makes the important features of the graph clear. For example, if your domain ranges from 0 to 100, you could set tick marks at intervals of 10 or 20.
- **Label the axes appropriately**: Make sure to include units if applicable (e.g., time in seconds, population size) to enhance understanding.
**For Range:**
- **Determine the output values**: Assess the range of y-values for the data being plotted.
- **Select a suitable scale**: Like the domain, determine a scale that optimally represents the data. If y-values range significantly, consider using a logarithmic scale for clarity.
- **Start at a logical point**: If the minimum of your range is significantly higher than zero, consider setting the y-axis to start at a more meaningful number to highlight variation.
**Other Considerations:**
- **Aspect Ratio**: Maintain a consistent aspect ratio to avoid distortion. A graph should not imply different relationships due to scaling discrepancies.
- **Gridlines**: Use gridlines to provide reference points and aid readability.
- **Multiple Graphs**: If comparing different datasets or functions, use the same scale to facilitate direct comparison.
- **Color and Marking**: Use different colors or markers for multiple lines or datasets to prevent confusion among viewers.
- **Legends and Annotations**: Include legends, titles, and annotations to further clarify the data representation.
### Exponential Graphs for Growth and Decay
Exponential growth and decay graphs both take the general form \(y = a \cdot b^x\) where \(a\) is a constant, \(b\) is the base (greater than 1 for growth, between 0 and 1 for decay), and \(x\) is the independent variable (often time).
#### Similarities:
- Both types of graphs exhibit rapid changes relative to their initial conditions.
- Both have a characteristic "J" shape (growth) or "L" shape (decay).
- They will never touch the x-axis (increasingly approaching 0 in the case of decay).
#### Differences:
- **Exponential Growth:**
- **Shape**: Starts slow and then rises steeply.
- **Graph Behavior**: \(b > 1\) leads to an upward curve that continues to ascend indefinitely.
- **Applications**: Populations, compound interest, viral infections, etc.
- **Exponential Decay:**
- **Shape**: Starts at a certain point and declines towards zero.
- **Graph Behavior**: \(0 < b < 1\) leads to rapid decline initially, slowing as it approaches the x-axis.
- **Applications**: Radioactive decay, depreciation of assets, cooling in thermodynamics, etc.
### Visual Representation
- **Exponential Growth Graph**: Initially, the slope is shallow, but as the input increases, the output rapidly escalates, creating a steep upward curve.
- **Exponential Decay Graph**: Starts high and quickly drops, gradually flattening out as it approaches the x-axis, never actually reaching zero.
In summary, while they may share structural similarities, their directionality and the phenomena they represent are fundamentally different.

To determine if a relation is a function based on a mapping diagram, you need to check if each input (from the domain) corresponds to exactly one output (from the range).
### Criteria for a Function:
- A relation is a function if **each element in the domain is paired with exactly one element in the range**.
- If any single input is linked to more than one output, then the relation is not a function.
### Example Analysis:
While I cannot see the mapping diagrams you are referring to, I can guide you through how to analyze them.
#### Steps to Determine if a Relation is a Function:
1. **Identify Inputs and Outputs**: Look at the elements in the domain and the corresponding elements in the range.
2. **Check for Repeated Inputs**:
- If any input has multiple outputs, the relation is not a function.
- If every input has a unique output, then it is a function.
3. **Domain and Range**:
- The **domain** is the set of all unique input values.
- The **range** is the set of all unique output values.
### Example Scenario:
1. **Mapping Diagram Example 1**:
- Inputs: 1, 2, 3
- Outputs: A, B, A (where input 1 maps to A, input 2 maps to B, and input 3 maps to A)
- **Function Check**: This is **not a function** because the input 1 maps to A and input 3 also maps to A, allowing two inputs to map to the same output, but differing inputs have different outputs.
- **Domain**: {1, 2, 3}
- **Range**: {A, B}
2. **Mapping Diagram Example 2**:
- Inputs: 1, 2, 3, 4
- Outputs: A, B, C, D (where each input maps to a unique output)
- **Function Check**: This is a **function** because every input value is associated with exactly one output.
- **Domain**: {1, 2, 3, 4}
- **Range**: {A, B, C, D}
### Conclusion:
To summarize, follow the steps above to analyze each given mapping diagram for functions, detailing the domain and range accordingly. If you can describe the specific pairs in the mapping diagrams you have, I’d be happy to help provide a more tailored assessment!

To create an equation using function notation from the given table of values, we can start by identifying the relationship between the \(x\) values (the input variable) and the \(y\) values (the output variable) in the table.
### Given Data:
```
l A(l)
2 8
4 16
6 24
8 32
```
### Step 1: Determine Slope
The first step in forming the equation is to determine the slope (\(m\)) of the line. The slope formula is defined as:
\[
m = \frac{\text{change in } y}{\text{change in } x} = \frac{A(l_2) - A(l_1)}{l_2 - l_1}
\]
Let's calculate the slope using two points from the table, for example using (2, 8) and (4, 16):
\[
m = \frac{16 - 8}{4 - 2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4
\]
### Step 2: Use Point-Slope Form
Next, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is:
\[
y = mx + b
\]
We know the slope \(m = 4\). Now, we need to find the y-intercept \(b\). We can use one of the points from the table to do this. Let's use the point (2, 8):
\[
8 = 4(2) + b
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
8 = 8 + b
\]
\[
b = 0
\]
### Step 3: Write the Equation
So now we have both the slope and the y-intercept. The equation in slope-intercept form is:
\[
A(l) = 4l + 0
\]
or simply:
\[
A(l) = 4l
\]
### Conclusion:
The function in function notation that describes the relationship between \(l\) and \(A(l)\) based on the given table of values is:
\[
A(l) = 4l
\]
This means that for every value of \(l\), the output \(A(l)\) is 4 times the input \(l\).
### Given Data:
```
l A(l)
2 8
4 16
6 24
8 32
```
### Step 1: Determine Slope
The first step in forming the equation is to determine the slope (\(m\)) of the line. The slope formula is defined as:

m = \frac{\text{change in } y}{\text{change in } x} = \frac{A(l_2) - A(l_1)}{l_2 - l_1}

\[
m = \frac{16 - 8}{4 - 2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4

\[

\]
\[
b = 0
\]
### Step 3: Write the Equation
So now we have both the slope and the y-intercept. The equation in slope-intercept form is:
\[
A(l) = 4l + 0
\]
or simply:
\[
A(l) = 4l
\]
### Conclusion:
The function in function notation that describes the relationship between \(l\) and \(A(l)\) based on the given table of values is:
\[
A(l) = 4l
\]
This means that for every value of \(l\), the output \(A(l)\) is 4 times the input \(l\).

To help you find the number of bacteria after five and a half hours, we'll need to know the specific function that represents the number of bacteria as a function of time.
Assuming you have a general exponential growth function of the form:
\[
B(t) = B_0 \cdot e^{kt}
\]
Where:
- \(B(t)\) is the number of bacteria at time \(t\),
- \(B_0\) is the initial number of bacteria,
- \(k\) is the growth rate constant,
- \(t\) is the time in hours.
### Step 1: Substitute the Value of \(t\)
If you provide the initial number of bacteria \(B_0\) and the growth rate \(k\), we can substitute \(t = 5.5\) into the function.
### Step 2: Example Calculation
Let’s proceed with an example where:
- \(B_0 = 100\) (initial number of bacteria),
- \(k = 0.5\) (growth rate).
Now, let's calculate the number of bacteria after five and a half hours.
\[
B(5.5) = 100 \cdot e^{0.5 \cdot 5.5}
\]
\[
B(5.5) = 100 \cdot e^{2.75}
\]
Using a calculator to find \(e^{2.75}\):
\[
e^{2.75} \approx 15.64
\]
Now plug this value back into the equation:
\[
B(5.5) \approx 100 \cdot 15.64 \approx 1564
\]
### Step 3: Round to the Nearest Bacteria
The estimated number of bacteria after five and a half hours would be approximately **1564**.
### Final Notes:
To give an exact answer tailored to your situation, please provide the specific function or parameters such as the initial count of bacteria and the growth rate. If you're working with a different function or an equation, share that information, and I can recalculate accordingly!

To create an input-output table for the function that gives the corresponding \(h\) values for \(t\) values of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, I need to know the specific function relating \(h\) and \(t\).
Assuming you have a function in the form \(h(t)\) (for example, let's say we are using a simple linear or exponential function), I can guide you through the process of calculating the \(h\) values or illustrate how to create a table.
### Example Function
Let's assume a simple hypothetical function:
\[
h(t) = 2t + 3
\]
### Step 1: Input-Output Table
You can substitute the given \(t\) values into the function to find the corresponding \(h\) values. Here’s the table creation process:

|-------|-----------------------|-------------|
| 0 | \(2(0) + 3 = 3\) | 3 |
| 1 | \(2(1) + 3 = 5\) | 5 |

| 3 | \(2(3) + 3 = 9\) | 9 |
| 4 | \(2(4) + 3 = 11\) | 11 |
### Final Output
Thus, the corresponding \(h\) values for the provided \(t\) values of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 would be:
