A. a function that can be used to find the total cost of y renting a canoe for x hours is ____________ B. The domain of the function represents_____________ C. The range of the function represents ___________ D. Michelle rents o canoe for 4 hours. The amount she pays is __________ (answer asap)

Answer 1

Answer:

A. y = 8 + 5.5x

B. x

C. y

D. $0

Step-by-step explanation:

According to data given $8 is fixed charge and additional cost of $5.5 is paid. So, in this scenario, the equation to find total cost will be

y = 8 + 5.5x

Now in this formula domain is value of x, because by definition, domain are all possible inputs to the function, so x can be 1,2,3,4 etc

Range is value of y because by definition, ranges are all possible outputs to the function, so y can be $13.5, $19, $24.5, $30 for corresponding values of x.

Now, as written in question D, Michelle rents 0 canoe, so she would pay $0. Kindly note that according to logic, rental company must charge their fixed amount of $8 once you at least rent 1 canoe, if you do not rent any canoe, so their will be no fixed and variable charges, hence, answer for D is $0.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. y= 5.50x+8

5.50 is your slope and 8 is your y-intercept

B. Domain: { 1, 2, 3, 4,...}

C. Range: { 13.5, 19, 24.5, 30,...}

D. It will cost her $30 to rent a canoe for 4 hours.
