Suppose that the function f(x) = 5x + 3 represents the number of cars that drive by in x minutes. How many cars will drive by in 10 minutes?
(1 point)
A) 80
B) 53
C) 50
D) 35
To find out how many cars will drive by in 10 minutes, we can substitute x with 10 in the given function f(x) = 5x + 3:
f(10) = 5(10) + 3
f(10) = 50 + 3
f(10) = 53
Therefore, the answer is B) 53 cars will drive by in 10 minutes.
