Answer: The answer would be the first choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that a function is where every INPUT has exactly ONE OUTPUT. That means for the coordinates (x, y), no pair could have an x value repeat. So, the first ordered row pair does not have any repeating x values, so it's the first answer.
-144= -1×2a×3b
144=2a×3b
144= 6ab
24= ab
a,b could b any two factors that have a product of 24
For example a,b could = 6,4 or 8,3 or 24,1
Answer:
This question is tricky because it could have multiple answers: for example is a,b= 6,4 then a+b= 10, but if a,b=24+1=25. So, the answer is that the sum of a+b varies depending on which 2 factors of 24 a and b are equal to. Does this make sense?
You would do 4-2= 2 then 8/2 =4 .. final answer being 4
