Functions can be modeled by equations, tables and graphs

  • The equation that models the function is y = \frac 14x  +1
  • The domain of the function is the set of whole numbers
  • The company should expect 4 box office gross in week 10

<h3>How to determine the function</h3>

From the question, we have the following ordered pairs

(x,y) = (0,1) and (4,2)

The function is a linear function.

So, we start by calculating the slope (m) using:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

Substitute known values

m = \frac{2 - 1}{4 - 0}

m = \frac{1}{4}

The equation is then calculated as:

y = m(x -x_1) +y_1

This gives

y = \frac 14(x -0) +1

y = \frac 14x  +1

The domain of the above function is the set of whole numbers

Substitute 10 for x, to calculate the number of box office gross for week 10

y = \frac 14 * 10 +1

y = 3.5

Approximate

y = 4

Hence, the company should expect 4 box office gross in week 10

A bowl of fruit contains only strawberries and grapes. For every 2 strawberries in a bowl there are 5 grapes.
sdas [7]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

S \to Strawberry

G \to Grape

The given parameter can be represented as:

S : G = 2 : 5

Required

The question is incomplete as what is required is not stated.

Possible questions could be to determine the number of strawberries given a certain number of grapes, and vice versa

Take for instance

Calculate the number of grapes when there are 20 strawberries

We have:

S : G = 2 : 5

This becomes

20 : G = 2 : 5

Express as fraction

\frac{20}{ G} = \frac{2 }{5}

Make G the subject

G = 20 * \frac{5}{2}

G = 10 * 5

G = 50

<em>i.e. 50 grapes</em>

<em>Apply the same method given a certain number of grapes</em>

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passed though the points (2,5) and (4,3)
STatiana [176]

The correct answer is C as it has the same line of equation. We can make this clear by verifying that these two points make the same equation or not. So as we can see if we calculate the gradient using the formula y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.

As we now know that the gradient is -1. We can simply put any one point in the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) to get the line of equation. WHen we calculate the line of equation it come out to be y = -x + 7
