Answer: Choice B</h3>
The set notation includes all values from -5 to 0, but the domain only includes the integer values
eg: something like -1.2 is in the second set, but it is not in the set {-5,-4,-3,-2,-1}
==========================================================
Further explanation:
Let's go through the answer choices one by one
- A. This is false because 0 does not come before -5, but instead -5 is listed first. The order -5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0 is correct meaning that
is the correct order as well. - B. This is true. A value like x = -1.2 is in the set
since -1.2 is between -5 and 0; but -1.2 is not in the set {-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0}. So the distinction is that we're either considering integers only or all real numbers in this interval. To ensure that we only look at integers, the student would have to write 
. The portion 
means "x is in the set of integers". The Z refers to the German word Zahlen, which translates to "numbers". - C. This is false. The student used the correct inequality signs to indicate x is -5 or larger and also 0 or smaller; basically x is between -5 and 0 inclusive of both endpoints. The "or equal to" portions indicate we are keeping the endpoints and not excluding them.
- D. This is false. Writing
would not make any sense. This is because that compound inequality breaks down into 
. Try to think of a number that is both smaller than -5 AND also larger than 0. It can't be done. No such number exists.
X = Can/Bottle height, y = Shadow length
x = 13 cm, y = 7.5 cm
x = 2.5 cm, y = 14.2 cm
I'm assuming your question is asking for an equation to model this. Since there are only two data points the only equation that can be made is linear
y = mx + c
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) <- Let 14.2 be y2, and 2.5 be x2 (it is important)
m = (14.2 - 7.5)/(2.5 - 13)
m = 6.7/-10.5
m = -0.638
y = -0.638x + c
To find c we can sub any one of the two coordinates, i'm choosing (2.5,14.2)
14.2 = -0.638(2.5) + c
14.2 = -1.595 + c
14.2 + 1.595 = c
15.795 = c
So the final equation is y = -0.638x + 15.795
