what u think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's C Or D.

OpenStudy (queelius):

Round to nearest 10. So, for instance, 14 should go to 10, but 16 should go to 20. Which graph represents that sort of rounding?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A? Sorry, i'm really dumb with math.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes queelius is explaining right

OpenStudy (queelius):

Graph A cannot be it. For instance, if you choose x = 14, you get y = 20.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D?

OpenStudy (queelius):

That is, on graph A you get that.

OpenStudy (queelius):

On D, if you choose x = 25, you get y = 10. That can't be it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, ><

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's gotta be B, because when I was looking at A, it looks kinda identical.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then again C looks like it could be too, gah.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I;m going to go with C.

OpenStudy (queelius):

Go over the entire range of one of those horizontal lines on part B and see if it makes sense. On graph B, if you go to x = 16, which y value do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=20 right?

OpenStudy (queelius):

Yes. What if you let x = 14, which y value do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10?

OpenStudy (queelius):

Yes. You see that, when you plug in an x value, you get the expected y value -- the "round to the nearest ten".

OpenStudy (queelius):

Therefore, it is graph B. It can't be C because if you plug in an x = 10, you get a y = 0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank yo so much that makes sense to me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im gonna post a new question mind if I tag you for help ?

OpenStudy (queelius):

I'm glad the graphs make more sense to you now.
