Question 1 of 14
Which one of these events allows you to predict the output based on an input?
Rolling a die
Flipping a quarter
Correct! When you input "10" on the remote, you know the TV output will switch
to channel 10.
Question 2 of 14
The output of toy cars in a toy factory is affected by the number of employees
working per shift.
Question 3 of 14
A rental car company charges a flat fee of $39 for a car rental. They charge an
additional $0.62 for each mile driven.
Which function F represents the cost to rent a car, where m represents the number
of miles?
F(m) = 39 + 0.62m
F(m) = 39 + 0.62 + m
Correct! Multiply 0.62 by the number of miles, m, and add that cost to the base
fee of $39.
Question 4 of 14
The length of a church service and the number of shark attacks in Florida
Question 5 of 14
A cell phone company charges a fee of $90 per month of service. A customer's cost,
C, for service can be represented by the function C(m) = 90m , where m
represents the number of months.
$96
$540
$5,400
$90
Question 6 of 14
A company that sells running shoes has a yearly fixed cost of $500,000. Additionally,
it costs the company $20 to produce each pair of shoes. The company's yearly cost is
represented by the function C(x) = 500, 000 + 20x, where x equals the number
of shoes.
If the company produces 10,000 pairs of shoes in a year, what is the yearly cost?
$520,000
$300,000
$900,000
$700,000
Incorrect. You added the price of the pairs of shoes twice to the fixed cost.
Question 7 of 14
The distance in miles that a car drives can be represented by the function
D(g) = 28g, where g is the number of gallons of gasoline.
If you drive 224 miles, how much gas do you use?
8 gallons
6,272 gallons
28 gallons
252 gallons
Incorrect. You multiplied 224 and 28. But 224 is the function value. So, 224 =
28g. Using inverse operations to solve for g, 224/28 = 8 gallons.
Question 8 of 14
Question 9 of 14
Apples are on sale for $1.65 per pound at the grocery store. The equation c = 1.65p
gives the cost c for apples in terms of the weight p (in pounds).
p = c − 1.65
p = 1.65c
p = c/1.65
1.65p = c
Incorrect. You swapped the variables p and c, but now this equation does not
make sense in terms of the problem.
Question 10 of 14
Cholesterol increase
Fast-food consumption
You own a blog. You earn 12% commission on sales whenever a visitor clicks on an
ad and purchases something. Let C(s) represent the amount you earn from
commission on sales, and let s represent your total sales. Which function represents
the amount you earn from the sales commission?
C(s) = 12 + s
C(s) = 0.12 + s
C(s) = 12s
C(s) = 0.12s
Incorrect. You need to represent 12% as 0.12. To find the amount made from
commission, you must multiply 0.12 by the total sales, s.
Question 12 of 14
Question 13 of 14
A forensic pathologist wants to model a person’s height, in inches, as a function of
their femur length, in centimeters. This can be represented by the height function
H(f) = 0.91f + 24 , where f is the length of the person’s femur.
If the femur length of a woman is 41 cm, what is her height?
59.15 inches
69.05 inches
61.31 inches
65.91 inches
Question 14 of 14
You want to drain your rectangular in-ground swimming pool, which contains 9,000
gallons of water. The amount of water remaining in the pool can be represented by
the function W(t) = 9– 2t, where t is the time, in hours, after the draining began.
The function, W(t), is measured in thousands of gallons.
How many gallons of water are in the pool two hours after the draining procedure
begins?
7,000 gallons
5 gallons
4,000 gallons
5,000 gallons
Incorrect. This is the amount of water left after just one hour. Each hour 2,000
gallons of water are drained. So if 2 hours have passed, then 2,000 (2) = 4,000
gallons of water have drained.
