Question

question 1 which of the following descriptions represents a discrete function? the mileage of a car over a year of driving. the amount of peaches available for purchase at a market over time. the amount of gasoline at a gas station over time. the temperature of an oven on a day when you are baking brownies.

Explanation:

A discrete function has distinct, separate values. Peaches are counted as whole numbers (you can't have a fraction of a peach for sale in a normal market context). Mileage, gasoline amount (can be in fractions like gallons and decimals of gallons), and oven temperature (can take any value within a range, like 350.5 degrees) are continuous (can take any value in an interval).

Answer:

The amount of peaches available for purchase at a market over time.
