Part A: y=∛x satisfies the table values for x and y. This can also be written y³=x, but y=f(x)=∛x is the way it’s expressed as a function. Part B: f(x)=925x+1000, so f(24)=925×24+1000=22200+1000=23200. This represents the value in dollars of renting a house for 24 months (2 years). The coefficient 925 is the rent per month, and 1000 is a downpayment.
