Functions in the Real World

Identify the independent and the dependent variables and describe how they are related.

 

  • What would you consider the domain and the range of the function to be?
  • How much would it cost to go from your home to nearest grocery store in this cab?
  • Would you suspect that it could be modeled by a linear, a quadratic function, or another type of function?
