Explain why a graph that fails the vertical-line test does not represent a function

1 answer:

5 0

For any given y value, there can only be one x value. Let's consider a graph with a line that curves and intersects x=2 twice. This would mean that if you plug 2 into the function you would get two answers. However, this is not possible as plugging in any value to x will result in only one answer. For example, if y= 4x + 3, no matter how many times I plug a number in there, I'm always going to get the same y value, and this is true for all real functions.

Answer:

P(3 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x₁, y₁) = A(-3,-3) ;(x₂ , y₂) B(5, 1)

m : n = 3 : 1

$P \left( \dfrac{mx_{2}+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_{2}+ny_{1}}{m+n} \right)\\\\P \left (\dfrac{5*3+(-3)*1}{3+1},\dfrac{3*1+1*(-3)}{3+1} \right)\\\\\\=P \left(\dfrac{15-3}{4},\dfrac{3-3}{4} \right)\\\\\\= P \left(\dfrac{12}{4},\dfrac{0}{4} \right)\\\\\\= P\left(3 , 0 \right)$
