Question 191

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The population of one city (in thousands) was 82.2 in 1970, 95.1 in 1980, and 102.1 in 1990. Let x=0\mathrm{x}=0 correspond to 1970 and x=20\mathrm{x}=20 to 1990 . find the rule of a piecewise linear function f\mathrm{f} that models this data, that is a piecewise function with f(0) =82.2,f(10) =95.1\mathrm{f}(0) =82.2, \mathrm{f}(10) =95.1 , and f(20) =102.1\mathrm{f}(20) =102.1 .


A) f(x) ={1.29x+82.2 if 0x100.70x+95.1 if 10x20f(x) = \begin{cases}1.29 x+82.2 & \text { if } 0 \leq x \leq 10 \\ 0.70 x+95.1 & \text { if } 10 \leq x \leq 20\end{cases}
B) f(x) ={1.29x+82.2 if 0x100.70x+88.1 if 10x20f(x) = \begin{cases}1.29 x+82.2 & \text { if } 0 \leq x \leq 10 \\ 0.70 x+88.1 & \text { if } 10 \leq x \leq 20\end{cases}
C) f(x) ={1.29x+82.2 if 0x101.00x+85.1 if 10x20f(x) = \begin{cases}1.29 x+82.2 & \text { if } 0 \leq x \leq 10 \\ 1.00 x+85.1 & \text { if } 10 \leq x \leq 20\end{cases}
D) f(x) =5.055x+82.2f(x) =5.055 x+82.2
