Answer:

f(x) = 10:
\large\boxed{6}

f(x) = 50:
\large\boxed{10}

f(x) = 120:
\large\boxed{17}

Explanation:

Write out the whole function using given information

f(x) = [10, 50, or 120]

Domain/y = 0.1x + 5

Substitute the possible values for x into the domain equation and solve

f(x) = 10: 0.1(10) + 5 = 1 + 5 = 6

f(x) = 50: 0.1(50) + 5 = 5 + 5 = 10

f(x) = 120: 0.1(120) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17

Final answers:

f(x) = 10:
\large\boxed{6}

f(x) = 50:
\large\boxed{10}

f(x) = 120:
\large\boxed{17}

Hope this helps :)
