Which graph represents y as a function of x?

Answer:

Bottom left.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for any of them to be the graph of a function you would need that given a value of x, you get no more than one value of y. Zero is fine, you just picked an x out of the domain.

In layman's terms it means that if you grab a ruler, a piece of paper, a pen, and you scan the graph moving the edge parallel to the y axis (ie, vertically) you are allowed to touch the graph only once. Top right is out. Bottom left is ok, bottom right is not: you have infinite points of contact in there.

Top left would be fine, if it wasn't for x = 1. In there you have two values marked with a solid dot. That makes it not the graph of a function.

under a dilation, the point (2,6) is moved to (6,18) what is the scale factor of the dilation? enter your answer in the box

Anestetic [448]

<h2>3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line passing through the two points is $\frac{y-y_{1} }{x-x_{1} }=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}$

When substituted,the equation becomes $\frac{y-6}{x-2}=\frac{18-6}{6-2}$

which when simplified is $y=3\times x$

The line clearly passes through origin.

The distance between two points is $\sqrt{(y_{1}-y_{2} )^{2}+(x_{1}- x_{2} )^{2}}$

Distance between origin and $(2,6)$ is $\sqrt{40}$ .

Distance between origin and $(6,18)$ is $\sqrt{360}$

Scale factor is $\frac{distance\text{ }of\text{ }p_{2}\text{ from origin}}{distance \text{ } of \text{ } p_{1}\text{ from origin}}$

So,scale factor is $\frac{\sqrt{360} }{\sqrt{40} }$

which when simplified becomes 3.
