Function A grows by larger and larger amounts every time, it will have the greatest values of y for very large values of x.
Given that,
These tables of values represent continuous functions. For which function will the y values be the greatest for very large values of x.
We have to determine,
The function will the y values be the greatest for very large values of x.
According to the question,
- The table A represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the "x" variable produces a three unit increment in the "y" variable.
This means that the growth rate of this function is 3.
In function A, as the x-values increase, the y-values triple. This will continue to grow by a larger and larger amount for every increase in x.
- In function B, as the x-values increase, the y-values go up by 100. This is a constant rate of change; the function will never change by more than 100.
The table B also represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the x variable produces a 100 unit increment in the y variable. This means that the growth rate of this function is 100.
- The table C also represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the x variable produces a 10 unit increment in the y variable. This means that the growth rate of this function is 10.
In function C, as the x-values increase, the y-values go up by 10. This is a constant rate of change; the function will never change by more than 10.
- The table D on the other hand does not represent a linear function, since the growth rate is variable and increases for greater values of x.
This means that as x grows larger, the growth rate of the function also grows larger, resulting in a much greater y value for very large x values if we compare it to a linear function, like the other options.
In function D, as the x-values increase, the y-values go up by 2. This is a constant rate of change; the function will never change by more than 2.
Hence, function A grows by larger and larger amounts every time, it will have the greatest values of y for very large values of x.
