Take an example: The salary per hour:

Assume x (variable) is the number of hours worked and assume THAT THE RATE PER HOUR IS $10, then:
If you work x hours at the hourly rate of$10, you will generate an income,
say, y that is equal the number of hours worked by the rate per hour, that is:

y = 10.x. The more hour(x) you work, the more income(y) you get.
Hence we created a relationship between y and x , or in English, between the earning and the number of hours worked.
Moreover y depends on x, if there is no x, there is no y and if x increases, y increases. However x is an INDEPENDENT variable because you can
give to x any number & y will follow

The relationship between the percentage of frozen citrus crop, and the cost of box of oranges is an illustration of a linear function.

The linear equation of the function is: $g(P) = 22.9P+7$ .
The inverse function is: $g^{-1}(c) = \frac{1}{22.9}(c - 7)$ .
A practical domain is from 0% to 100%
A practical range is from 7 to 29.9

A. Input quantity

The input quantity is the percentage of frozen citrus crop

B. Output quantity

The output quantity is the cost of box of oranges

C. The linear function

We have:

$(P_1,c_1) = (20\%,11.58)\\(P_2,c_2) = (80\%,25.32)$

Calculate the slope of the function

$m = \frac{c_2 - c_1}{P_2 - P_1}$

$m = \frac{25.32 - 11.58}{80\%-20\%}$

$m = \frac{13.74}{60\%}$

$m = 22.9$

The linear equation is calculated as follows:

$c -c_1 = m(P-P_1)$

$c -11.58= 22.9(P-20\%)$

$c-11.58 = 22.9P-4.58$

D. Rewrite as y = mx + b

We have:

$c-11.58 = 22.9P-4.58$

Collect like terms

$c = 22.9P - 4.58 + 11.58$

$c = 22.9P+7$

The function is:

$g(P) = 22.9P+7$

E. A practical domain

The domain is the possible values of P. Because P is a percentage, its possible values are 0% to 100%.

The domain of the function is: $[0\%,100\%]$

F. A practical range

When P = 0%

$c = 22.9 \times 0\% + 7 = 7$

When P = 100%

$c = 22.9 \times 100\% + 7 = 29.9$

Hence, the range of the function is: $[7,29.9]$

G. The meaning of $g^{-1}(12)$

The inverse function of g(P) is $g^{-1}(P)$

So:

$g^{-1}(12)$ is the percentage of frozen citrus crop, when the cost is $12.

H. The inverse formula

We have:

$c = 22.9P+7$

Subtract 7 from both sides

$c - 7 = 22.9P$

Make P the subject

$P = \frac{1}{22.9}(c - 7)$

So, the inverse formula is:

$g^{-1}(c) = \frac{1}{22.9}(c - 7)$

Substitute 12 for c

$g^{-1}(12) = \frac{1}{22.9}(12 - 7)$

$g^{-1}(12) = \frac{1}{22.9} \times 5$

$g^{-1}(12) = 22\%$

Answer:

Part A:

x + y = 80

x + 20 = y

Part B:

Pam spends 30 minutes practicing math every day.

Part C:

It is not possible for Pam to have spent 60 minutes practicing dance because this means she must have practiced math for 40 minutes (60 - 20 = 40). This would total out to 100 minutes of total practice, not 80 minutes. Therefore, this is impossible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

"She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math."

x + y = 80

"She dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on math."

x + 20 = y

Part B:

Solve for x:

x + 20 = y

Isolate variable x:

x = y - 20

Plug in this new value for the first equation:

y - 20 + y = 80

Combine like terms:

2y - 20 = 80

Isolate variable y:

2y = 100

y = 50

Plug in the new value of y into any equation:

x + 50 = 80

Isolate variable x:

x = 30

Part C:

x + 20 = y

x + 20 = 60

x = 40

x + y = 80

40 + 60 = 80

100 = 80

Impossible.
