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.

Which statements are TRUE? Select all that apply. Marisa drives 112 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes, which means her speed is 64

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Marisa drives 112 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes, which means her speed is 64 miles per hour.

Speed = Distance / Time

= 112 / 1 45/60

= 112 / 1 3/4

= 112 × 4/7

= 64 miles per hour.

TRUE

b . If 6 pens cost $7.74, then 7 pens cost $9.03.

Cost of one pen = $7.74/6 = $1.29

Cost of 7 pens = $1.29 × 7 = $9.03

TRUE

c. If Raymond drives at a speed of 57 miles per hour, then it takes him 4 hours and 10 minutes to drive 256.5 miles.

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 256.5 / 57 = 4.5 = 4 hours 30 minutes

FALSE

d. If 17 identical cans of soup cost $38.59, then 3 of the cans must cost $6.81.

Cost of one can = $38.59 / 17 = $2.27

Cost of 3 cans = $2.27 × 3 = $6.81

TRUE

e. Mr. Mayes buys two dozen eggs for $8.40, which means that he pays 70 cents per egg.

A dozen = 12

2 dozens = 12 × 2 = 24

Cost of one egg = $8.40 / 24 = 0.35 = 35 cents

Which of the sets of ordered pairs represents a function? (4 points) A = {(−4, 5), (1, −1), (2, −2), (2, 3)} B = {(2, 2), (3, −2

elena55 [62]

A function will not have any repeating x values....it can have repeating y values, just not the x ones

(-4,5),(-1,1),(2,-2),(2,3)
this is not a function because it has 2 sets of points that has x as 2...so it has repeating x values

(2,2),(3,-2),(9,3),(9,-3)
this is not a function because it has 2 sets of points that has an x value of 9...so it also has repeating x values

so both of these are not functions.....neither of them
