The graph below models the value of a $20,000 car t years after it was purchased.

Value of Car

A graph titled Value of Car has years on the x-axis and Dollars on the y-axis. A line curves down and goes through points (0, 20,000), (4, 10,000), and (14, 2,000).

Which statement best describes why the value of the car is a function of the number of years since it was purchased?
Each car value, y, is associated with exactly one time, t.
Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.
The rate at which the car decreases in value is not constant.
There is no time, t, at which the value of the car is 0.

Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept being tested is functions.

The graph describe is a vertical parabola that opens downwards.

All vertical parabolas are functions because the pass the vertical line test.

In other words, each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

The correct answer is the second option.

99

step-by-step explanation:

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
