Given:

Customers can pick their own blueberries at Blueberry Hill. They pay $5 to enter the patch and $4 per pound for the blueberries they pick.

Required:

We have to write an equation to model the given expression.

Explanation:

Let the total cost be y,

And x denotes the amount in pounds of blueberries.

Since, Given to enter the patch customers pay $5 (fixed)

and Given the customers pay $4 per pound for the blueberries they pick so for x pounds of blueberries cost 4x

Thus, total cost y = 4x + 5

Thus, Option (a) is correct.

Answer

Thus, Option (a) is correct.

Which graph represents the function f(x)= 0.2^x + 3

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To determine which of the given graphs represents the equation $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3$ , we substitute some values in the place of x.

When $x=0,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(0) = 0.2^{0} + 3= 4.$

Anything with an exponent of 0 will equal 1.

So the graphs on the right side cannot be the answers.

Step 2:

Now we substitute another value to determine which graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

When $x=1,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(1) = 0.2^{1} + 3= 4.2.$

The value of f(x) when $x=1$ is lesser than the value of f(x) when $x =0.$

So the third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$
