The demand for coffee, Q, in pounds sold per week, is a function of the price of coffee, c, in dollars per pound and the price of tea, t, in dollars per pound, so Q = f(c, t)

a. Do you expect fc to be positive or negative? What about ft? Explain.
b. Interpret each of the following statements in terms of the demand for coffee: f(3,2) = 780 fc(3,2) = −60 ft(3,2) = 20

45

step-by-step explanation:

to find a percentage, add a decimal in front and multiply it by the other number.

.25 times 180= 45

when functions are first introduced, you will probably have some simplistic "functions" and relations to deal with, usually being just sets of points. these won't be terribly useful or interesting functions and relations, but your text wants you to get the idea of what the domain and range of a function are. small sets of points are generally the simplest sorts of relations, so your book starts with those.

step-by-step explanation:

state the domain and range of the following relation. is the relation a function?

{(2, –3), (4, 6), (3, –1), (6, 6), (2, 3)}

the above list of points, being a relationship between certain x's and certain y's, is a relation. the domain is all the x-values, and the range is all the y-values. to give the domain and the range, i just list the values without duplication:

domain: {2, 3, 4, 6}

range: {–3, –1, 3, 6}

(it is customary to list these values in numerical order, but it is not required. sets are called "unordered lists", so you can list the numbers in any order you feel like. just don't duplicate: technically, repetitions are okay in sets, but most instructors would count off for this.)

while the given set does indeed represent a relation (because x's and y's are being related to each other), the set they gave me contains two points with the same x-value: (2, –3) and (2, 3). since x = 2 gives me two possible destinations (that is, two possible y-values), then this relation is not a function.

note that all i had to do to check whether the relation was a function was to look for duplicate x-values. if you find any duplicate x-values, then the different y-values mean that you do not have a function. remember: for a relation to be a function, each x-value has to go to one, and only one, y-value.

state the domain and range of the following relation. is the relation a function?

{(–3, 5), (–2, 5), (–1, 5), (0, 5), (1, 5), (2, 5)}

i'll just list the x-values for the domain and the y-values for the range:

step-by-step explanation:

the 2000 florida legislature amended section 322.05, florida statutes, changing the requirements to obtain a class e license for a driver under the age of 18 holding a learner's license. the following requirements must be met in order to obtain a regular class e license if a learner's license is issued on or after october 1, 2000:

must hold a learner's license for at least 12 months or until the 18th birthday.

must have no convictions 12 months from the issue date of the learner's license.

may have one traffic conviction within 12 months from the issue date of the learner's license if adjudication is withheld.

a parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult over 21 years old must certify that the driver has 50 hours driving experience, including 10 hours of night time driving.

the revenue of the fitness center, y, is the product of two factors: the number of members and the fee paid by each member. there are 320 members now, but number of members goes down by 10 for each $5 increase in fees, so if x is the number of $5 price increases then members is equal to (320 - 10x). since the fee is currently $45, and the fee increases by $5 for every price bump x, the fee is given by (45 + 5x). so, revenue y is given by y = (320 - 10x)(45 + 5x).
