Know the difference between continuous, discontinuous and discrete functions
A student group is selling chocolate bars for $2 each. The function, f(x) gives the amount of money collected after selling x chocolate bars.
DATA: continuous or discrete?
Algebraically: y = 2x OR f(x) = 2x
A low-flow shower head releases 1.8 gallons of water per minute. The function V(x) gives the volume of water released after x minutes.
DATA: continuous or discrete?
Algebraically: y = 1.8x OR v(x) = 1.8x
