Part A
Yes y is a function of x. Specifically the equation is y = x^5
For any given input, there is exactly one output
Notice how if x = 1 then y = x^5 = (1)^5 = 1
Notice how if x = -1 then y = x^5 = (-1)^5 = -1
Notice how if x = -2 then y = x^5 = (-2)^5 = -32
Notice how if x = 2 then y = x^5 = (2)^5 = 32
In general,
x^5 = x*x*x*x*x
there are five copies of x multiplied
A more specific example
3^5 = 3*3*3*3*3
there are five copies of '3' multiplied
=====================================================
Part B
All we do is replace x with 4 and use PEMDAS to simplify
f(x) = 2x+12
f(4) = 2(4)+12
f(4) = 8+12
f(4) = 20
The value of f(4) is 20
What does it mean? It is the total cost of renting the bowling lane for 4 hours. If you rent it for four hours, then you'll pay a total of $20.
The portion 2x = 2*4 = 8 is the variable cost which depends on how long you play. The more hours, the more the variable cost goes up
The fixed cost is 12. This is always fixed as this is the price to get in the door. If you play for 0 hours, but somehow got in the door, then you still pay $12
In total, variableCost+fixedCost = 8+12 = 20 = totalCost
Answer:
3/4 = 34 = 0.75.

Answer: me
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the estimated number of defective batteries and the number of batteries that were actually defective, the percent error of Jake's estimate is 20%
<h3>How to find the percent error?</h3>
The percent error of a problem can be found by the formula:
= (Expected results - Actual results) / 100%
Expected results = 12 defective batteries
Actual results = 10 defective batteries
Jake's percentage error is therefore:
= (12 - 10) / 100%
= 2 / 10 x 100%
= 0.2 x 100%
= 20%
In conclusion, the percent error of Jake's estimate is 20%.
