Question

I need some help on this ASAP please. Thanks!

Answer 1

A. yes...it is a function because there is no repeating x values.
B. (5,2)(6,5)...slope = (5 - 2) / (6 - 5) = 3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
now we sub
2 = 3(5) + b
2 = 15 + b
2 - 15 = b
-13 = b
so the equation is : y = 3x - 13
when x = 7
y = 3(7) - 13....y = 21 - 13....y = 8

f(x) = 2x + 13...when x = 7
f(7) = 2(7) + 13...f(7) = 14 + 13.....f(7) = 27

the function has a greater value

C. f(x) = 2x + 13....when f(x) = 75
75 = 2x + 13
75 - 13 = 2x
62 = 2x
62/2 = x
31 = x
