Question

Martina is the president of her school's engineering club, and she is ordering shirts for hel club members. The company she's buying from charges f(x) dollars per shirt for an order of x shirts.
What does f(25) < 10 tell you?
The company charges under $10 per shirt for a 25-shirt order.
The company charges $25 per shirt for an order with fewer than 10 shirts.

Answer 1

The first statement is correct. f(25) is the price per shirt when x = 25, so f(25) < 10 means the company charges less than $10 per shirt for a 25-shirt order.

The second statement is incorrect — f(25) does not mean $25 per shirt, nor does it refer to orders with fewer than 10 shirts.
