Answer:

Only C is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

To test whether a graph is a function you use the vertical line test.

If you can place a vertical line anywhere on the plane (in the domain of the "function" to be tested) and it intersects the curve at more than one point, the curve is not a function.

We see with A, wherever we put the vertical line it intersects twice.

With B, it intersects infinitely many times.

C is a function because wherever we put the vertical line, it only intersects once.

D is a function because it intersects twice providing we do not put it on the "tip" of the parabola.

The mathematical reasoning behind this is that a function must be well-defined, that is it must send every x-value to one specific y-value. There can be no confusion about where the function's input is going. If you look at graph B and I ask you what is f(3)? Is it 1? 2? 3? ... Who knows, it's not well-defined and so it's not a function. However if I ask you about C, whichever input value for x I give you, you can tell me to which y-value it gets mapped/sent to.

Work out the area of this circle. Take pi to be 3.142 and give your answer to 1 decimal place
Rashid [163]

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>I think you have forgotten to attach the question. </em>

<em>Anyways....</em>

In order to find the area of a circle use the formula:

πr^{2}   Where r is the radius

For example the radius is 3cm. The area of the circle will be:

π × 3^{2}

Since you have taken pi as 3.142...

3.142 × 3^{2}

3.142  × 9

= 28.278

In order to find the answer to 1 decimal place, check the number next to the number right after the decimal. Is it a number greater than or equal to 5? then add +1 to the number.

= 28.3 cm^{2}

George weighs 60 pounds less than his older brother. Together they weigh 240 pounds. How many pounds does George weigh?
lyudmila [28]

Easy Algebra question!

Let's use "x" as a variable.

The equation would be x+x+60 = 240 with "x" being George's weight.

Subtract 60 from both sides and you get 2x = 180.

From there you divide both sides by 2, getting x=90.

"x" is George's weight, so he weighs 90 pounds.
