Explain how the following ordered pairs represent or doesn't represent a function - {(–3, 5), (–2, 5), (–1, 5), (0, 5), (1, 5), (2, 5)} a. for every x value there is one y value - not a function b. for every x value, there is only one y value - a function c. for every y value, there is one x value - function d. for every y value, there is one x value - not a function

The appropriate choice is ...

... b. For every x value, there is only one y value - a function

A relation that maps an x-value to only one y-value is a function.

Hey there!!

In order for something to be a function, the x values shall not repeat.

Hence, the appropriate answer would be option ( B )

Hope it helps!!

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week
