Sagot :

Applying the rules, it is found that ordered pair (24,6), option A, works for both rules.

---------------------

The rule 1 is that y is x divided by 4, that is:

[tex]y_1 = \frac{x}{4}[/tex]

The rule 2 is that y is x subtracted from 18, that is:

[tex]y_2 = x - 18[/tex]

In item A, we have that the input x = 24, thus, the results of the expressions are:

[tex]y_1 = \frac{24}{4} = 6[/tex]

[tex]y_2 = 24 - 18 = 6[/tex]

In both cases, ordered pair (24,6), thus option A is the answer.
