Quiz 1: Chapter 1

Don't forget that your answer should say "y = ...."

The average rate of change between x = -1 and x = 2 is determined by finding the difference in the function values at these two points and dividing it by the difference in the x-values. In this case, the function value is constant at 3 for all x-values, so the average rate of change is also constant and equal to 3.

The given function f(t) represents the average salary of a classroom teacher in the United States based on the number of years from 1990. To find the average salary in 2000, we need to substitute t = 10 (since 2000 is 10 years after 1990) into the function.

f(t) = 982.06t + 32,903.77
f(10) = 982.06(10) + 32,903.77
f(10) = 9,820.6 + 32,903.77
f(10) = 42,724.37

Therefore, the average salary in 2000 is $42,724.37.

The given equation f(a) = 0.017924A + 0.01 represents a linear relationship between the variable a and the function f(a). To find f(28000), we substitute 28000 for A in the equation and solve for f(a). Therefore, f(28000) = 0.017924(28000) + 0.01 = 501.882.

Remember P(x) = R(x) - C(X). Your answer should be in simplest form.

Remember P(x) = R(x) - C(X). Your answer should be in simplest form.

The correct answer is "y = mx + b". This equation is in the point-slope form for a linear equation, where "m" represents the slope of the line and "b" represents the y-intercept. This form allows us to easily identify the slope and y-intercept of the line by comparing the equation to the standard form, y = mx + c.

Looking at Table B, we can see that when x = 4, y = -4. Therefore, the value of y when x = 4 is -4.

The given correct answer is true because the question is asking if y is described as a function of x. If y is described as a function of x, it means that for every value of x, there is a unique value of y. This implies that there is a clear relationship between x and y, where the value of y depends on the value of x. Therefore, the statement "Does describe y as a function of x?" is true.

The two lines are perpendicular because the product of their slopes is -1. The slope of the first line can be found using the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), which gives (38 - 16) / (-1 - (-12)) = 22/11 = 2. The slope of the second line can be found by rearranging the equation 2y + x = 23 to y = -(1/2)x + 23/2, which has a slope of -1/2. The product of the slopes (-1/2) * 2 = -1, indicating that the lines are perpendicular.

Table A does not describe x as a function of y because for the value of y=4, there are two different corresponding values of x (5 and 9). In a function, each input (y) should have only one unique output (x), but in this case, there is a repetition of the input value y=4. Therefore, Table A does not satisfy the criteria for a function.
