Are functions 1 and 2 the same? explain. function 1: y = 3(x + 5) function 2: y equals three times x, plus 5. a) no, 3(x + 5) = 15x and “three times x, plus 5” would be 3x + 5. b) yes, 3(x + 5) and “three times x, plus 5” are both equal to 15x. c) yes, 3(x + 5) and “three times x, plus 5” are both equal to 3x + 5. eliminate d) no, 3(x + 5) = 3x + 15 and “three times x, plus 5” would be 3x + 5.
