Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest is based on the principal amount of a loan or deposit.
To find if one is a function, you must see if the pattern is the same.
Domains (x) can not have two values
I forget what the y value is called, but there can be the same y- value for multiple x - values
A. is not a function, because its ordered pairs are all over the place, and the value 4 in the x - value has two values assigned - 0 and 3, which makes it invalid.
B. may be a linear function. Its ordered pairs aren't jumping all over the place.
Both the x and y go up one for one, so the function could be y = x + 3
C. isn't because the x - value 2 has two values. Again, that makes this invalid.
D. is invalid because there is two x - values for 2.
Therefore, the answer is B.
We have 10 ml of 20% acid to which we need to add "x" milliliters of 100% acid to make 50% acid.
.20 * 10 + 1.00x = .50 * (10 +x)
in which "x" is the volume of the 100% acid to be added.
2 + x = 5 + .5 x
.5x = 3
x = 6 milliliters
