Which of the following is an example of a function?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leokris [45]3 years ago
4 0
A. Not a function since we have the points (-1,0) and (-1,3). The x value repeats while the y values are different. Plugging in x = -1 leads to multiple outputs, which shows we don't have a function. To get a better visual, you can plot the points. You'll see that the points form a vertical line. Therefore, this graph fails the vertical line test. 

B. This is a function. All of the x values are different. The points, when graphed, pass the vertical line test. In other words, its impossible to draw a vertical line through any two points on the graph. Any x input here leads to exactly one y output.

C. This is not a function. Like choice A, we have repeated x values. In this case we have (4,6) and (4,7). The x value x = 4 repeats itself leading to multiple outputs y = 6 and y = 7

D. This is also not a function. The x value x = 0 repeats itself. The graph fails the vertical line test.

Answer: Choice B

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

864 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

A display case in the shape of a rectangular pyramid has a base that is 12 inches by 9 inches. It is 8 inches tall. What is the volume of the display case?

The volume of a rectangular pyramid =

Area of the base × Height of the pyramid

Base has dimensions = 12 inches by 9 inches.

Area of the base = 108 square inches

Height of the pyramid = 8 inches

Volume of rectangular pyramid =

Area of the base × Height of pyramid

= 108 square inches × 8 inches

= 864 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the display case is 864 cubic inches

Use calculus to find the largest possible area for a rectangular field that can be enclosed with a fence that is 500 meters long
rewona [7]
Let x and y be the sides of the rectangle. The perimeter is given to be 500m, so we are maximizing the area function A(x,y)=xy subject to the constraint 2x+2y=500.

From the constraint, we find

2x+2y=500\implies x+y=250\implies y=250-x

so we can write the area function independently of y:

A(x,y)=\hat A(x)=x(250-x)=250x-x^2

Differentiating and setting equal to zero, we find one critical point:

\dfrac{\mathrm d\hat A(x)}{\mathrm dx}=250-2x=0\implies x=125

which means y=250-125=125, so in fact the largest area is achieved with a square fence that surrounds an area of A(125,125)=125^2=15625\text{ m}^2.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Graph B

No

Inside

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number of apples = x and number of peaches = y.

It is given that the farmer can afford maximum of 54 acres.

Thus, x + y ≤ 54.

Also, apples require 3000 gallons of water and peaches require 800 gallons of water each day.

Since, maximum amount of water is 80,000 gallons per day,

We get, 3000x + 800y ≤ 80,000.

It is required to maximize the profit given by z = 3400x + 1600y.

Thus, the system of equations becomes,

z = 3400x + 1600y

3000x + 800y ≤ 80,000.

x + y ≤ 54.

Plotting these equations gives the following graph.

We can see that the graph obtained is equivalent to Graph B.

Further, we know that the maximum value of the objective function z = 3400x + 800y is obtained at the boundary point of the solution region.

Thus, any point inside the solution region will give a feasible solution not maximum solution.

Hence, ( 30,20 ) will not maximize the profit as it lies inside the solution region.
