C is a function. You can tell easily by doing the vertical line test. Put your finger pen pencil, etc. up to the graph vertically and see if at any point it touches more than one point at once. If it doesn't, it's a function.

Answer:

Question 9: Variables: (smallest) s, q, r (largest)

Question 10: 5 whole numbers (7, 8, 9, 10, and 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

For question nine, there are two given statements... s=q-2 and q<r. Say we plug in 10000 (a really big #) in for q, then we would get s=9998 and r>10000. This way, we can see that s would be the smallest, then q, and r is the largest. <em>(q<r can be written as r>q)</em>

For question 10, it states $\frac{1}{4}$ . This can be split into $\frac{3}{x}$ and $\frac{3}{x}$ . When x is 12 in the first equation then $\frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}$ and when x is 6 in the second equation $\frac{3}{6} =0.5$ (0.5 is also $\frac{1}{2}$ ). Therefore, x must be a whole number less than 12 and greater than 6, and it cannot be either 12 or 6. Whole numbers between 6 and 12 are 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 or 5 whole numbers.
