Use the following information to answer the next question:

A local music shop was tracking the number of guitars sold during the month of June. The table below shows the data collected for the first 5 days of June.

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
\hline
\begin{tabular}{c}
June \\
Date, [tex]$d$[/tex]
\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{c}
Guitars \\
Sold, [tex]$g$[/tex]
\end{tabular} \\
\hline 1 & 8 \\
\hline 2 & 4 \\
\hline 3 & 6 \\
\hline 4 & 2 \\
\hline 5 & 9 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

Written Response:

1. a) Label the axes. Then plot the points from the table of values given above. (2 marks)

b) What type of data did you graph (discrete or continuous)? Justify your answer. (2 marks)

c) State the domain and range using appropriate notation for the type of data that you graphed. (2 marks)



Answer :

Certainly! Let's go through the entire question step-by-step.

### 1. a) Label the axes and plot the points from the table of values given above. (2 marks)

Labeling the Axes:
- For the x-axis, we label it as "June Date, [tex]\( d \)[/tex]".
- For the y-axis, we label it as "Guitars Sold, [tex]\( g \)[/tex]".

Plotting the Points:
Here is the table of values given:
[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline \text{June Date, } d & \text{Guitars Sold, } g \\ \hline 1 & 8 \\ \hline 2 & 4 \\ \hline 3 & 6 \\ \hline 4 & 2 \\ \hline 5 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

To plot these points, we would place points at:
- (1, 8)
- (2, 4)
- (3, 6)
- (4, 2)
- (5, 9)

### 1. b) Type of data graphed (discrete or continuous)? Justify your answer. (2 marks)

Type of Data:
- The data is discrete.

Justification:
- Discrete data consists of distinct, separate values. Here, the number of guitars sold each day is counted in whole numbers. You cannot sell a fraction of a guitar.
- The dates are also distinct and separate days. This means we're dealing with individual, countable values.

### 1. c) State the domain and range using appropriate notation for the type of data that you graphed. (2 marks)

Domain:
- The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (in this context, the dates).
- For the given data:
[tex]\[ \text{Domain} = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\} \][/tex]

Range:
- The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (in this context, the number of guitars sold).
- For the given data:
[tex]\[ \text{Range} = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 9\} \][/tex]

By following these steps, we have effectively labeled our axes, plotted the points, identified the data type as discrete, and stated the domain and range correctly.
