Please help! Algebra 1 math.

The table shows the outputs, y, for different inputs, x:

Input (x) 3 4 5 6
Output (y)3 4 5 6



Part A: Do the data in this table represent a function? Justify your answer. (3 points)

Part B: Compare the data in the table with the relation f(x) = 2x + 16. Which relation has a greater value when x = 6? (2 points)

Part C: Using the relation in Part B, what is the value of x if f(x) = 40? (5 points)

A. The data in the table represent a function. y=x/2. This is seen as for every value of x in the table, y=x/2(half of it). You can show this further by trying this fact on each value.

B. For the original function, when x =8, y=x/2=4
For the function given in this part, when x=8, y=3(8)-10
y=24-10 y=14
This means the relation given in this part has a greater value when x=8

C. When x=80, f(x)=3(80)-10
=240-10
=230
