Karen bakes cookies. She has observed that the number of cookies that turn out well in each batch varies with the size of the batch and is given by the function f(x) = 2x – 23, where x is the size of the batch (number of cookies in each batch). She never bakes fewer than 12 cookies in a batch. If the size of five batches is {20, 25, 26, 27, 34}, how many cookies turn out well in each batch?

Substitute the values of the size of the 5 batches to the model.

For example

@x = 20

f(20) = 2*20 – 23 = 17

f(25) = 2*25 – 23 = 27

f(26) =29

f(27) = 31

f(34) = 45

 

Therefore the answer is the first choice (17, 27, 29, 31, 42)
