Can someone explain why this is correct please the question: what are the possible values of x and y for two distinct points,(5,-2 ) and (x, y), to represent a function. ​

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain = {5,x}

Range = {-2, y}

For being a function, one domain cannot have more than one range.

If x=5, then y will be the range for x=5. But 5 already has a range -2 in (5,-2). So, x can be any real number except 5 and y can be any real number

what? that isnt a question

step-by-step explanation:

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
