Answer 2

Options A & C.

Explanation:

Zack puts a mug of water in his microwave oven. Final temperature of the water that represents a function of the number of seconds he heats it.

Zack names this function Temperature(seconds), and he abbreviates it as T(s).

Option A. T(60) is the temperature of the water after 1 minute.

This is the correct option because T(60) defines the temperature after 60 seconds or 1 minute.

Option B. T(45) is the time it takes the water to get to 45°C

Function T(45) is defined for temperature after 45 seconds not for 45°C.

Therefore this option is incorrect.

Option C. T(15) is the temperature of the water after 15 seconds.

This is the right option as per definition of function given by Zack.
