Answer 1

No g(x) = x/6 for (60, 10) to be a possible solution

by this function 60 people would have to donate 1/6th of a garment each to achieve 10 full garments

Explanation:

g(x) number of items

x number of people

the data point (60, 10) make sense as a possilbe solution NO

g(x) = number of items x = 60 g(x) = 10

g(60) = x/6 = 10

= 60/10

by this function 60 people would have to donate 1/6th of a garment each to achieve 10 full garments
