1 answer

Here are the answers to your questions:

6. Possible outputs (range) for the function C(x) = 10x: To find the outputs, we need to consider the cost for a given number of students (x), which is calculated as \( C(x) = 10x \). The outputs must be multiples of 10.

  • A) 35 (not a multiple of 10)
  • B) 60 (a multiple of 10)
  • C) 20 (a multiple of 10)
  • D) 5 (not a multiple of 10)
  • E) 92 (not a multiple of 10)
  • F) 54 (not a multiple of 10)

The correct options are: B) 60 and C) 20


7. Evaluate the function f(x) = 4 − 5x: Now we need to evaluate the function for each input:

  • A) \( f(-2) = 4 - 5(-2) = 4 + 10 = 14 \)
  • B) \( f(1) = 4 - 5(1) = 4 - 5 = -1 \)
  • C) \( f(0) = 4 - 5(0) = 4 - 0 = 4 \)
  • D) \( f(4) = 4 - 5(4) = 4 - 20 = -16 \)

The largest output is from A) f(-2) = 14.


8. Which equation describes the function based on the provided table? To find the equation, we can look for a linear relationship between x and y based on the given points.

y = 2x - 2 fits with the points provided:

  • For x = 0: y = 2(0) - 2 = -2
  • For x = 2: y = 2(2) - 2 = 4
  • For x = 4: y = 2(4) - 2 = 10
  • For x = 6: y = 2(6) - 2 = 16

So the correct function is: B) f(x) = 3x − 2


9. The function C(n) = 12n + 5 context:
C(3) represents the cost of ordering 3 necklaces, including the shipping charge. So, the correct answer is: D) It represents the cost of buying 3 necklaces.

Which input does not make sense? A negative value for n (C(-20)) does not make sense in this scenario, as you cannot order a negative quantity of necklaces. Thus the answer is: A) C (-20).
