Question

Okay, I need some help checking my answer to a function problem - Generate a function for the following: A number is equivalent to 515.85 and increases by 62 in one interval. How many intervals has passed for the number to reach 1795. The domain is any real number. – My answer is in the comment.

Answer 1

\[x = 515.85 + 62(y)\]\[f(y) = 515.85 + 62y\]\[f(1) = 515.85 + 62(1)\]\[f(1) = 577.85\]\[.....\]\[f(20) = 1755.85\]

Answer 2

I'm not done yet, still haven't reached 1795, just wondering if I got the rest correct...
