Answer:

A. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales item = x

Regular items = y

X = y+ 11

Y = x-11

x(61.96-(61.96)(0.2)) +y(43.3-(43.3)(0.1)) = 97.66

49.568x + 38.97y= 97.66

49.568x + 38.97(x-11) = 97.66

88.538x= 526.33

X = 5.9

5.9+11= 16.9

Approximately 18

Which of the following lists of ordered pairs is a function?
Eduardwww [97]
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.
