Answer: f(x) represents the total number of pages she read in x days.

And x represents the number of days she reads.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of pages she has already read from her book = 95

Number of pages she read each day = 20

So, the function would be


f(x)=20x+95

Here, x denotes the number of days she reads.

So, f(x) represents the total number of pages she read in x days.

And x represents the number of days she reads.
