Answer:
a.No, given table does not represent y as function of x.
b.f(300)=123 miles
f(300) represent the total cost of car for driving 300 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Number (x) 4 4 9 9
Square root(y) 2 -2 3 3
a.We have to find that given table represent y as function of x.
We know that function is mapping between two non- empty set A and B .
Every element in set A has a unique image in set B.
One element in set A can not have more than one image in set B
But two or more than elements in set A can have same images in set B.
But from given table
Image of 4 are 2 and -2 which is not possible by definition of function.
Hence, tables does not represent y as a function of x.
B.[tex]f(x)=90+0.11 x[/tex]
Where f(x)= Total cost (in dollars) for renting a car for a week
x=Driving distance (miles)
Substitute x=300
Then, we get [tex]f(300)=90+0.11(300)=90+33=123 miles[/tex]
Hence, f(300) represent the total cost of rent of car for driving 300 miles .
