Not every straight line will pass the vertical line test. What is the only type of straight line that would fail the vertical line test? *
A-horizontal line
B-vertical line
C-Option 3

A vertical line has all points with the same x coordinate, but infinitely many different y coordinates. It inherently fails the vertical line test because we can pass a single straight line through more than one point on the function curve.

Put another way, the input is a single value but there's infinitely many outputs. A function must have each input produce exactly one output. This is of course only when the input is in the domain.

answer: b

step-by-step explanation:

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)
