To determine whether the equation \( y = 8x^2 \) represents a function, we can refer to the definition of a function. A relation is considered a function if each input (x-value) has exactly one output (y-value).

In the case of the equation \( y = 8x^2 \):

1. For every \( x \) value you plug into the equation, you will get one and only one corresponding \( y \) value. For example:
- If \( x = 1 \), then \( y = 8(1)^2 = 8 \).
- If \( x = -1 \), then \( y = 8(-1)^2 = 8 \) (still one output for two different inputs).

2. The equation is quadratic, which means its graph is a parabola that opens upwards. Each vertical line drawn through the graph will intersect it at most once, which confirms that each input gives only one output.

Thus, \( y = 8x^2 \) is indeed a function.

Yes, the equation \( 4x + 53 = y \) represents a function.

To analyze why it is a function, we can observe the following:

1. **Format**: The equation can be rearranged to the form \( y = 4x + 53 \). This is the standard form of a linear equation, which is always a function.

2. **Single Output**: For every value of \( x \) that you input into the equation, you will get exactly one corresponding value of \( y \). This satisfies the definition of a function, which states that each input must be associated with exactly one output.

For example:
- If \( x = 0 \), then \( y = 4(0) + 53 = 53 \).
- If \( x = 1 \), then \( y = 4(1) + 53 = 57 \).

Since there is only one \( y \) output for each value of \( x \), we conclude that \( 4x + 53 = y \) is indeed a function.

To solve the system of equations:

1. **First equation**:
\[
x + 3y = 15 \quad \text{(Equation 1)}
\]

2. **Second equation**:
\[
3x + 2y = 10 \quad \text{(Equation 2)}
\]

We'll use substitution or elimination. Here, I'll use substitution for clarity.

### Step 1: Solve Equation 1 for \( x \)

From Equation 1, we can express \( x \) in terms of \( y \):
\[
x = 15 - 3y
\]

### Step 2: Substitute \( x \) into Equation 2

Now, we substitute \( x \) in Equation 2:
\[
3(15 - 3y) + 2y = 10
\]

### Step 3: Simplify and solve for \( y \)

Distributing:
\[
45 - 9y + 2y = 10
\]

Combine like terms:
\[
45 - 7y = 10
\]

Subtract 45 from both sides:
\[
-7y = 10 - 45
\]
\[
-7y = -35
\]

Divide both sides by -7:
\[
y = 5
\]

### Answer

The value of \( y \) for the solution to the system is \( \boxed{5} \).

To determine Joe's claim about the equation involving \( b \) and whether it represents the graph of a straight line, we need to clarify the equation that Joe is referring to.

However, let’s consider a common form of linear equations. If we assume the equation is like \( y = mx + b \) (the slope-intercept form of a line), where \( m \) and \( b \) are constants, then:

- **If \( b \) is any real number**, the graph of the equation will always be a straight line, as the slope \( m \) (which may also depend on \( b \)) will determine the angle of the line, and \( b \) (the y-intercept) will determine where the line crosses the y-axis.

Thus, if Joe's claim is about the equation taking the form of \( y = mx + b \), where \( b \) is simply a constant:

- **Answer**: **B. Joe's claim is true for all values of b.**

This is because the equation \( y = mx + b \) represents a straight line for any real number \( b \).

If you had a specific equation in mind that you didn't mention, please provide it so we can analyze it properly!

To determine the equation that describes the relationship between \( t \) (time in hours) and \( N \) (the number of pages remaining), we can analyze the data provided in the table.

### Analyzing the Data:

Here’s the data from the table:

| Time (hours) | Number of Pages Remaining |
|--------------|---------------------------|
| 0 | 360 |
| 1 | 320 |
| 2 | 280 |
| 3 | 240 |
| 4 | 200 |

### Finding the Pattern:

1. **Initial Value**: At \( t = 0 \) hours, \( N = 360 \) pages are remaining.
2. **Change in Pages**: Each hour, the number of pages remaining decreases by 40 pages:
- From 360 to 320 (decrease of 40)
- From 320 to 280 (decrease of 40)
- From 280 to 240 (decrease of 40)
- From 240 to 200 (decrease of 40)

This constant decrease indicates a linear relationship.

### Slope and Intercept:

- The slope \( m \) (the rate of change of \( N \) with respect to \( t \)) is -40 (because the number of pages is decreasing).
- The \( y \)-intercept (the number of pages when \( t = 0 \)) is 360.

### Formulating the Equation:

The equation of a linear relationship can generally be written in the form:
\[
N = mt + b
\]
where:
- \( m \) is the slope (-40 in this case),
- \( b \) is the y-intercept (360 here).

Putting it all together, we have:
\[
N = -40t + 360
\]

### Conclusion:

The equation that describes the relationship between \( t \) and \( N \) is:

**B. \( N = -40t + 360 \)**.

To solve the problem, we need to interpret the information given about Xavior's coins and set up a system of equations.

Let:
- \( q \) be the number of quarters.
- \( d \) be the number of dimes.

From the problem, we have two main pieces of information which can be expressed in equations:

1. **Total number of coins**:
\[
q + d = 124 \quad \text{(Equation 1)}
\]

2. **Total value of the coins**:
The value of a quarter is $0.25 and the value of a dime is $0.10. Therefore, the value of all the coins can be expressed as:
\[
0.25q + 0.10d = 25 \quad \text{(Equation 2)}
\]

To eliminate the decimals in Equation 2, we can multiply every term by 100:
\[
25q + 10d = 2500 \quad \text{(Equation 2 simplified)}
\]

Now we have the system of equations:
1. \( q + d = 124 \)
2. \( 25q + 10d = 2500 \)

### Step 1: Solve Equation 1 for \( d \)

From Equation 1:
\[
d = 124 - q
\]

### Step 2: Substitute into Equation 2

Now substitute \( d \) into the simplified Equation 2:
\[
25q + 10(124 - q) = 2500
\]

### Step 3: Distribute and Simplify

Distributing the 10:
\[
25q + 1240 - 10q = 2500
\]

Combine like terms:
\[
15q + 1240 = 2500
\]

### Step 4: Isolate \( q \)

Subtract 1240 from both sides:
\[
15q = 2500 - 1240
\]
\[
15q = 1260
\]

Now, divide by 15:
\[
q = \frac{1260}{15} = 84
\]

### Conclusion

So, Xavior had **84 quarters**. The answer is:

**C. 84**.
