In 2006 the average adult ate 56 pounds of chicken. this amount will increase by 0.6 pounds per year until 2011. what is the linear function f(x)?

The required linear function is (f(x) = 0.6(x - 2006) + 56) and this can be determined by using the arithmetic operations.

Given :

To determine the linear function f(x) following steps can be used:

Step 1 - Let 'x' be the number of years.

Step 2 - Then the total number of years since 2006 will be:

= x - 2006

Step 3 - The amount increase in pounds per year will be:

= 0.6(x - 2006)

Step 4 - Now, add 56 in the above equation.

= 0.6(x - 2006) + 56

Therefore, the required linear function is (f(x) = 0.6(x - 2006) + 56).

f(x) = 0.6(x -2006) + 56  

Step-by-step explanation:

The function starts at 56 lb. Then it increases by 0.6 lb for every year after 2006.

Let x = the year

Then x - 2006 = the years since 2006.

And 0.6(x - 2006) represents the additional pounds.

The function is

f(x) = 0.6(x -2006) + 56

answer is 67%
