Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A relation is a function if each input gives exactly one output. There is one price for each number of pounds, so the relation is a function.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Relations expressed in terms of ordered pairs or tables can be identified as "not a function" if any input (x) value is repeated. Relations expressed as a graph will be "not a function" if any vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point. (This is called "the vertical line test.")
The cost function in this case is a straight line through the origin. It has a slope of $5.99/lb. Any polynomial relation will be a function.
Let x be the number of weeks; therefore, the two linear equations are

Where T stands for the punches on the tea punch card and C for the punches on the coffee punch card.
Solving by substitution. Set T=C, then

Thus, substitute the value of x=3 into the first equation,

Thus, after 3 weeks, Josiah will have the same number of punches on each card, and he will have 23 punches on each card.

3+28p=-32
28p=-35
p=-35/28
p=-1.25
