To determine whether a graph of a relation is also a function, Shayla declares that the y-axis is a vertical line and counts the

number of times that the graph intersects the y-axis. If the graph has exactly one y-intercept, Shayla concludes that the graph shows a function. In all other cases, she declares that it is not a function. 
Is Shayla applying the vertical line test correctly?

A) No, because the y-axis is a horizontal line.

B) No, because using the y-axis tests only whether x = 0 is mapped to multiple values.

C) Yes, because multiple y-intercepts represent multiple x-values being mapped to y = 0.

D) Yes, because the y-axis represents all vertical lines of the x-values.

Answer:

Option B is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check whether a graph of a relation is a function or not we can use vertical line test.

The vertical line test for a function says that at any point on its domain, the vertical line through that point must intersect the curve only once.  Even is there is one exception to this rule, the graph cannot represent a function.

Keeping this in mind, we can say what Shayla is doing is a wrong method as she test for vertical test only at a particular value of x=0 and not throughout the domain.

Hence option B is right

B) No, because using the y-axis tests only whether x = 0 is mapped to multiple values.

I believe it’s b because this is not an accurate way of used the vertical line test. It only applies to the y intercepts, yet in another area an x coordinate could be with more than one y coordinate

Where is the center of the circle and what is its radius
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(3, -4) and r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of a circle can be found using the equation (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 and is (h,k) from it. Notice h and k are the opposite value as in the equation.  

First write the equation in this form.  

x^2 - 6x + ( ?)+ y^2 +8y + (?) + 16 = 0  

Complete the square with each variable to find what numbers should go in place of the question marks.  

(-6/2)^2 = -3^2 = 9  

(8/2)^2 = 4^2 = 16  

Since 16 has already been added to the equation, just add 9 to both sides of the equation.  

x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 +8y + 16 = 9\\(x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 9  

So the center is (3,-4) and the radius is 3.

What is the mean of the data set?
mestny [16]

Ok, im guessing that this is all about mean

First mean is just adding everything up for example:

5+5+10+10+5

so the answer is 35, but that isnt completely finished you need to divide 35 by 5, or how many numbers were added then you get the mean for my example the mean is 7

------------------------------------------------

ACTUAL PROBLEMS

1. 10+15+14+8+18+11+12+12+10+10+17+16 = 153

153/12= 12.75

2. 16.4+17.1+17.4+18.1= 69 B)

69/4=17.25

3.  11+15+19+17+23+20+17+13+18+21=174

174/11=15.8181818182

4. 21+25+36+16+32= 130

130/5=26

Brut [27]

Answer:

Please see the graph below

Step-by-step explanation:

The table is just selecting numbers for x and then solving for what y would be.  Once we have the ordered pairs (x,y)  We can graph the points and see the line.
