Q. Bella just took a strawberry-rhubarb pie out of the oven. The temperature of the pie xx minutes after it was removed from the oven is given by the function f(x)f(x). The temperature is measured in degrees Fahrenheit.\newlineWhat does f(35)<115f(35) < 115 tell you?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)At 115115 minutes, the temperature of the pie is less than 35°F35\degree F.\newline(B)At 3535 minutes, the temperature of the pie is less than 115°F115\degree F.
  1. Understand function f(x)f(x): Understand the function f(x)f(x) and what xx represents.\newlineThe function f(x)f(x) represents the temperature of the pie xx minutes after it was removed from the oven. The variable xx represents the number of minutes.
  2. Interpret inequality f(35) < 115: Interpret the inequality f(35) < 115. The inequality tells us that the temperature of the pie 3535 minutes after being removed from the oven is less than 115115 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Choose correct option: Choose the correct option based on the interpretation of the inequality.\newlineOption (A) suggests that at 115115 minutes, the temperature is less than 35°F35\degree F, which is not what f(35) < 115 indicates.\newlineOption (B) suggests that at 3535 minutes, the temperature of the pie is less than 115°F115\degree F, which correctly interprets the inequality f(35) < 115.
