Question

Clothing donations are collected to help a family in need. The function g(x) represents the number of items collected where x is the number of people who donated. Does a possible solution of (60, 10) make sense for this function? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

No, it doesn't make sense because the output is not feasible.

Explanation:

We are told that the function g(x) represents the number of items collected.

Now, we are also told that x is the number of people who donated.

Now, if we want to consider a possible solution of (60, 10) .

It means, we now have; g(60) = 10

This means that 60 people donated and 10 items were collected.

It doesn't make sense that 60 people donated items and only 10 items were available to be collected.

Thus, we can say that ;

No, it doesn't make sense because the output is not feasible.
