X would represent the total number of tests Jake took

In your equation 85x - 15 . . . . 

 - The 85 is the score that Jake makes each time. 
 - The x is the number of tests Jake takes. 
 - And the -15 means that you would subtract 15 from Jake's total score (85x) 
 - All this will equal your answer to the equation which is Mikes total score. 

The question is asking what does x represent. 
Therefor the answer would be B. The total number of tests Jake took

Hope this helps! :)

I will give brainelest but i need help on the graph
const2013 [10]

Answer:

1)   (6,2) (9,2) (3,8) (3,5)

2)   (2,-5) (5,-5) (-1,-11) (-1,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question, your reflecting over the x-axis into quadrant I, so you just need to make all the coordinates positive.  The numbers stay the same - you just get rid of the negative signs.  (6,2) (9,2) (3,8) (3,5)

For the second problem, you subtract 4 from the x-value, and 3 from the y-value.

(6,-2) becomes (2,-5)

(9,-2) becomes (5,-5)

(3,-8) becomes (-1,-11)

(3,-5)  becomes (-1,-8)

Explain why each function is continuous or discontinuous. (a) The temperature at a specific location as a function of time (b) T
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

(a) The temperature at a specific location as a function of time.

This is a continuous function as the temperature cannot increase in an instant like time.

(b) The temperature at a specific time as a function of the distance due west from New York City.

This is a continuous function as the temperature in one location is affected by its neighboring places.

(c) The altitude above sea level as a function of the distance due west from New York City.

The altitude above sea level can be discontinuous at a cliff, or continuous at very deep hole.

(d) The cost of a taxi ride as a function of the distance traveled.

This is a discontinuous function as the cost still raises if you make a stop.

(e) The current in the circuit for the lights in a room as a function of time.

This is a discontinuous function as the function takes the value of 0 when the switch is off and 1 when the switch is on.

The electron traveling speed makes this discontinuous.
