anonymous · Answer

haha.

anonymous · Answer

just seeing if i did the quiz already

anonymous · Answer

so what are you questions

anonymous · Answer

The table below shows the values of y for each value of x:

Part A: Does the table represent a relation that is a function? Justify your answer by using the values shown in the table. (4 points)

Part B: The function f(x) shown below represents the number of baskets Jess made at different distances, x, in meters, from the hoop:

f(x) = -x + 6

Calculate and interpret the meaning of f(4). (4 points)

Part C: Write an ordered pair to represent the input and output of the function in Part B when Jess is at a distance of p meters from the hoop. (2 points)

amistre64 · Answer

passing answers back and forth will not be tolerated ... just saying.

anonymous · Answer

For the part a: I said This table is not a function, because the x values have more than one output. ex: (1,0) (1,-1)
Part B: : f(4)=-4+6=2 this means that Jess made 4 baskets from 2 meters from the hoop. 
Part C: (-4,2)

anonymous · Answer

no i would not just give him the answers i would just be able to help him more

anonymous · Answer

I don't want answers I just want to know how I can correct my self if something is wrong. @amistre64

amistre64 · Answer

just making sure :)

jdoe0001 · Answer

A) is correct, there is one x-repeat, thus not a function
B)    f(x)  or "y" represents the baskets made by Jess
f(4)  means    she made only 2 baskets, y=-4+6  = 2
from 4 meters, or "x"

C)   see above

anonymous · Answer

ok I see what I did wrong for part B, so should the numbers be switched around for part c?

jdoe0001 · Answer

well... actually... .just noticed... part C) uses "p" meters
so  $\bf y=-4{\color{brown}{ x}}+6\qquad x={\color{brown}{ p}}\qquad y=?$

anonymous · Answer

I have no idea how to find y without finding p.

jdoe0001 · Answer

well... don't find "p" then... leave it in "p" terms

anonymous · Answer

(p,-4p+6) ?

jdoe0001 · Answer

(p,-4p+6)    $\Large \checkmark$

anonymous · Answer

but shouldn't I answer the question  with actual numbers?

jdoe0001 · Answer

well.  yes.. IF the input were a number
but in this case is just a variable

anonymous · Answer

ok thanks so much!
