Question 10 - Type your answer in the space provided. Write on paper as needed. Clear Response
For a complete team, 20 players are needed. Coach Higby has 13 players on her team.
Part A: Write a number sentence describing this situation, using p to represent the number of
additional players required to complete the team.
Number sentence:
Part B: Solve your number sentence for p. Show your work.

You need to find the values of x that correspond to the given values of f(x). That is, you need to solve for x:
.. y = 7x -2.7
.. y +2.7 = 7x
.. x = (y +2.7)/7

You are given y values of {14.1, 30.9, 41.4, 58.9, 68}. The corresponding x values are {2.4, 4.8, 6.3, 8.8, 10.1}, corresponding to selection C.

_____
Since the first number in each choice is different, you only need to evaluate f(x) for those numbers to see which gives the correct result. Only the 3rd one (2.4) give f(2.4) = 14.1, the correct answer.
