A yard is equal in length to three feet. The function f(x) takes a measurement in yards (as input) and returns a measurement in feet (as output). What number will the function return if the input is 10.5?

if it takes yards and turns it into feet then it just multiplies it by 3

so if the input is 10.5 then you just multiply it by three

31.5 feet is the imput

Answer: 31.5

Explanation:

Given: A yard is equal in length to three feet.

The function f(x) takes a measurement in yards (as input) and returns a measurement in feet (as output).


\\\Rightarrow\ f(x)=3x

If input = 10.5

Then
f(10.5)=3(10.5)


\Rightarrow\ f(10.5)=31.5

Hence, 31.5 is the number will the function return if the input is 10.5.
