The table shows the outputs y for different inputs x:
Input
(x) 3 7 11 15
Output
(y) 4 6 8 10
Part A: Do the data in this table represent a function? Justify your answer. (3 points)
Part B: Compare the data in the table with the relation f(x) = 5x – 21. Which relation has a greater value when x = 11? (2 points)
Part C: Using the relation in Part B, what is the value of x if f(x) = 99? (5 points)
(10 points)
A. Yes. Each x value has only one y value. No x value has 2 different y values. B. For the table, y is 8 when x is 11. Plug in the value to determine the y value for the equation. f(x)= 5(11)-21 f(x)= 55-21 f(x)= 34 Since 34>8, the value of the equation f(x) is greater when x=11. C. 99=5x-21 120=5x x=24 Final answer: 24
