The graph below does not represent a function. Explain why.

Mathematics

Simora [160]3 years ago

Notice how points T and Z are vertically aligned, or vertically lined up. This is where the graph fails the vertical line test.

The input x = 2 leads to the outputs y = 3 and y = 5 (which are the y coordinates of points Z and T in that order).

A function is only possible when any given input leads to <u>exactly one</u> output only. It would be like saying "the conversion function from Celsius to Fahrenheit has 0 degrees C convert to both 32 degrees F and 50 degrees F at the same time". But such a statement makes no sense and it's not useful. So this is one example of why having one output makes sense for a function.

In short, we need one output for any given input. But the input x = 2 leads to more than one output. That's why we don't have a function.

Five more than the product of a number and 4 is equal to 8
Maru [420]

Answer:

4x+5=8

x=\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number

we know that

The algebraic expression is equal to multiply the number by 4, add 5 and equal 8

so

4x+5=8

Solve for x

subtract 5 both sides

4x=8-5\\4x=3

Divide by 4 both sides

x=\frac{3}{4}

8x=4x^2-1 <br>solve by completing the square
Klio2033 [76]
Get the x terms by themselves on one side and a constant on the other side of the equal sign...

4x^2-8x=1  make the leading coefficient equal to one...

x^2-2x=1/4  now halve the linear coefficient, -2 in this case, square it, and add that value to both sides of the equation...-2/2=-1, -1^2=1 so

x^2-2x+1=1+1/4

x^2-2x+1=5/4  now the left side is a perfect square...

(x-1)^2=5/4  take the square root of both sides...

x-1=±√(5/4)  add 1 to both sides

x=1±√(5/4)
