The LNHS Lions stadium seats about 2,000 people. The tickets sell for $6 each. The function f(x) = 6x represents the situation where x is the number of people in attendance and f(x) is the amount of money LNHS makes as revenue. What is the range of the situation?

• 0 < f(x) < 6

• 0 < f(x) < 2,000

• 0 < f(x) < 12,000

• 2,000 < f(x) < 12,000

Pedro is driving to Nevada. The distance d in miles he has left to travel, based on the hours driving h, can be modeled by the function:

d(h) = 2100 - 70h

How can you determine how long the trip will take?

• Set the distance = 0 and solve for h; the answer is 30 hours.

• Set the hours = 0 and solve for d; the answer is 70 hours.

• You can't figure it out since the function has lots of combinations of hours and miles.
