You are correct. Yes it is a function since for every input (x) there is a unique output (y). That means no two outputs are the same for different inputs.

The only part i am really having trouble on is part B

Compare the table to the function.... What is the output of the table when the input equals 8 ? _________ your answer here

OpenStudy (retireed):

Compare the table to the function.... What is the output of the table when the input equals 8 ? _________ your answer here What is the value of the function when x equals 8 ? f(8) = 3x - 10 replace the x with 8 and solve the equation f(8) = 3(8) - 10 = _______________ your answer here

OpenStudy (akgorgeous):

So they are asking for the answer to the equation? Or is it asking what the x and y values of the equation are? In that case would - 10 = y? @retirEEd

OpenStudy (retireed):

They are asking to COMPARE the value in the table to the value of the equation at the same x (input) value. I need to see TWO numbers in order to make a comparison.

OpenStudy (akgorgeous):

f(8) = 3(8) - 10 =14

OpenStudy (retireed):

What is the output of the table when the input equals 8 ? _________ First answer f(8) = 3x - 10 replace the x with 8 and solve the equation f(8) = 3(8) - 10 = _______________ Second answer

OpenStudy (akgorgeous):

y = 14?

OpenStudy (retireed):

14 is correct for the second answer

OpenStudy (akgorgeous):

so would y=14

OpenStudy (retireed):

see above
