The table shows three unique functions.
1 answer:
Answer:
<h2>All three functions have a y-intercept.</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
The table is attached, there you can observe functions f(x), g(x) and h(x).
Remember, when x = 0, it represents a y-intercept. So, we can deduct that all three functions have y-intercept, (0,1) for f(x), (0, -1/2) for g(x) and (0,-5) for h(x).
Also, x-values represent domain values, however, in this case, we can't say that all three function have the same domain values, because we don't know the domain defintion for each of them to determine such thing.
Additionally, in the table you can observe that f(x) has the greatest maxium, so the second choice is also false. And neither function has x-intercept.
Therefore, the only right answer is the third choice.

Answer: choice B) yes; only one range value exists for each domain value
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
Explanation:
The inputs are x = -3, x = -1, x = 1, x = 5. They are the first coordinate listed of each point. We don't have any x values repeating so this means we have a function. Each input leads to exactly one output which is what choice B is stating. The domain is the set of allowed inputs, or x values. The range is the set of possible y outputs.
If we had something like (1,2) and (1,5) then the input x = 1 leads to more than one output (y = 2 and y = 5). This example means we don't have a function
If you graph the points (-3, -2), (-1,0), (1,0) and (5,-2) as shown in the attached image, then you'll notice that it is impossible to pass a single line through more than one point. Therefore this graph passes the vertical line test visually proving we have a function.
Going back to the example with (1,2) and (1,5), plotting these two points leads to the vertical line test failing implying we don't have a function.
