Question

15 Points!!!!!!!!! Mike attends basketball practice sessions every week. The coach assesses his progress at the end of each session by asking him to attempt 10 free throws. Prior to starting the sessions, Mike missed 6 out of 10 free throws. At the end of the first practice session, Mike missed 5 of his 10 free throws. At the end of the second session, he missed 4 of his 10 free throws. This constant decrease in the number of missed throws continues until Mike does not miss any of his 10 free throws at the end of a practice session. If the number of free throws Mike misses is dependent on the number of practice sessions he has attended, select the appropriate domain that describes this relationship.
A. D = [0, 10]
B. D = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
C. D = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
D. D = [0, 6]

Answer 1

Answer:

In the case of Mike's free throws, the Domain that describes this relationship can be either B or D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case of a relationship that represents a 'constant' increase or decrease, we know that there will be an independent and dependent variable.  The independent variable is our 'x' value and the dependent variable is our 'y' value.  In this case, they tell us that the number of free throws Mike misses is dependent on the number of practices sessions he has attended.  Therefor, 'x' would represent the number of practices and 'y' would represent the number of missed free throws. At the start, before practices or an 'x' value of 0, Mike, misses 6 free throws.  He continues to decrease his missed throws by for each practice, until the sixth practice where he misses none.  So, the 'x' values would be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.  This can be shown by letter 'B', which includes all numbers, or letter 'D', which represents all numbers between, and including 0 and 6.

Answer 2

Answer:

I'd choose B since it includes all of the numbers.
