A function is defined as a relation in which  each element of a given set (the domain of the function) is associated with an element of another set ( the range of the function).

Note that it is ' an element' in the second set  NOT more than one element.

If a graph fails the vertical line test ( the line passes through the graph more than once) it means that there is more than one element in the range  associated with the element in the domain - so it is not a function.

Answer:


Sample Response: If a vertical line intersects a graph more than once, then the graph has more than one y-value for a given x-value. You can't have two y-values for an x-value in a function. Therefore, the graph is not a function.

What you will want to do is replace x with the amount of customers so it would be 42 squared divided by 3025-55x42 which should hopefully give you your answer which is 2.339 but you may have to round it as you can’t have 1/3 of a person etc hope this helps, let me know if I’m wrong

The diagram shows corresponding lengths in two similar figures. Find the area of the smaller figure.
butalik [34]

The area are in the ratio of the squares of corresponding sides.

That is  15^2 : 20^2  = 225:400

so the area of the smaller figure = (225/400) * 64

= 0.5625 * 64

= 36 cm^2  (answer)
