A school is ordering pencils for its students. The principal estimates that each student will use 30 pencils in one school year. The function y = 30x describes the total number of pencils, y, that the principal should order for x students. Which set of terms best describes the function y = 30x in this scenario?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

again lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

Aaron made a table of values and used several ordered pairs to draw the graph of a function. Then, he drew the function by connecting the points without lifting his pencil from the page. Which statement about the function must be true?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's continuous

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're welcome, any more?

Sarah read that skateboarding burns about 100 calories every 20 minutes. She made a table of values to compare time and calories burned.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they want to know if its liner or non liner

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be linear because as the x increases so does the y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there any more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

Sarah read that skateboarding burns about 100 calories every 20 minutes. She made a table of values to compare time and calories burned.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The function represents the relationship between minutes of skateboarding (x) and calories burned (y). For this scenario, is the function discrete or continuous? How do you know? Use at least 3 sentences in your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, it would be continuous because in the 20 minutes she was continuously burning the calories.She didn't burn 100 cals on the last minute.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's only two sentences but you can add something to it i guess lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so so much for your help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're welcome!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have one more question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which set of terms describes the graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are there choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

discrete and linear discrete and non-linear continuous and linear continuous and non-linear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm. i would say discrete and linear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

you're welcome!
