Consider the following scenario describing the Cambridge Mall parking lot: The number of wheels in the parking lot is based on the number of cars in the parking lot. Does this scenario represent a function? A.Yes, because the number of cars is specific to the number of wheels in the parking lot B.Yes, because the number of wheels is specific to the number of cars in the parking lot C.No, because the number of wheels is specific to the number of cars in the parking lot D.No, because the number of cars is specific to the number of wheels in the parking lot

The answer is C because the number of wheels is the same every time so if you're getting the same outcome for each income, it's not considered a function.

OpenStudy (chillout):

B. The number of wheels depends on the number of cars, but the other way is not always true.

OpenStudy (chillout):

Say, for example: let "y" be the number of wheels in the parking lot, and "x" the number of wheels. If each car has 4 wheels, we can define y=4x.

Consider the chart below. 2-5 3-5 6-5 8-5 Do you see how the outcome numbers are all the same? This chart would show a non- function. Think of it as a pop machine. I f you press the button for pepsi, you expect pepsi. I f you don't get pepsi, you get upset. The machine isn't functioning right! hence, non- function. Get it? I hope this helped you!
