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?
80
53
50
35
The number of cars that will drive by in 10 minutes can be calculated by plugging in x = 10 into the function:
f(10) = 5(10) + 3
f(10) = 50 + 3
f(10) = 53
Therefore, 53 cars will drive by in 10 minutes.
The answer is 53.
