Question

A certain book had an original rating of 27 out of 30 points on a survey chart. Each month, the rating fell by 3 points. Express the number of points as a function of m, the number of months since the release.

(A) f(m)=3m (B) f(m)=3m−27 (C) f(m)=30−3m (D) f(m)=27−3m (E) f(m)=3−27m

Answer 1

Answer:

D.) f(m)=27−3m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Original rating = 27

Total possible rating points = 30

Drop in rating point per month = 3

m = number of months since release :

Hence,

F(m) = original rating - drop in rating per month * number of months since release

F(m) = 27 - 3(m)

F(m) = 27 - 3m
