Which set is a function? A) {(0,3), (3,0), (0,4), (4,0)} B) {(0,2), (2,0), (4,6), (6,4)} C) {(2,6), (3,6), (4,6), (2,0)} D) {(6,2), (2,0), (4,6), (6,4)}

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Does it mean linear function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

One sec.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

For a function to be linear, no points can cross each other.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Such as, no two x points can cross. Do you know domain and range?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh ok i know that part

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

A) {(0,3), (3,0), (0,4), (4,0)} Domain = x Range = y Domain : ( 0, 3, 0, 4) Range : (3, 0, 4, 0) 0 crosses twice for domain, so no. B) {(0,2), (2,0), (4,6), (6,4)} D= (0, 2, 4,6) R=(2,0,6,4) Points have their own pairs. C) {(2,6), (3,6), (4,6), (2,0)} D= (2,3,4,2) R = (6,6,6,0) Dont think so. D) {(6,2), (2,0), (4,6), (6,4)} D=(6,2,4,6) R=(2,0,6,4) Nope.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

B is your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx so much!!!!!!

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with another question plz?

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you Which inequality represents the graph? A) y < x - 2 B) y > x - 2 C) y ≤ x - 2 D) y ≥ x - 2

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

I need a graph. (-:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh yea duh stuipd me:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

That's okay! Okay. For graphing inequalities remember the inequality that is greater/less than equal to, will have a solid line. A graph that is just greater than or less than will have a dashed line. So, which ones can you eliminate from that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can eliminate D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and C.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Not exactly. It has a line under the inequality telling us that the line will be solid, and in this graph your line is solid. D is a possible answer choice.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

C is also a possible answer choice.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Unless you meant those were possible answers. Then you are right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i was skepital of those two :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so c and d are the possible choices then

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

That's okay. Yes, they are, because the line is solid on the graph. If it was referring to these signs - <, > the line would be dashed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its D but i could be wrong

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

The best way to see if it is either C or D is to test a point in the shaded region to see which one it favors.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok then its d then

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Lets pick (1,1) from the shaded region, thats simple enough.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

C) y ≤ x - 2 1 </ 1-2 1less than or equal to -1 Well 1 is not less than -1. Lets see what D says. D) y ≥ x - 2 1 greater than or equal to 1-2 1 is greater than -1. This is true. Good job getting the answer!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay!! so its d.?

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Yup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay thx alot for explaining the answer!!

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

You're welcome, they are tricky at first but get easier with time and practice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats very true

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

If you need any more help, I am here to help.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok:)
