Which equation could potentially describe this situation:

A manufacturing company finds that the daily costs associated with making tennis balls is high if they don’t make enough balls and then becomes high again if they make too many balls. The function graphed models the daily costs of making x tennis balls.

• $y=2x+3$

• $y=2^x+3$
  

• $y=x^2+2x+3$
  

• $y=\left|2x\right|+3$
  

Identify the function family.

Greg is training for a mountain bike race. He leaves his car at the beginning of a trail and proceeds to bike 8 miles away and then comes back the same way to his car. If he bikes at a constant rate, the function graphed models the distance he is away from his car after x minutes.
