  1. Using the table below, determine if a functional relationship exists. If so, provide the function rule.
    Volume
    v    		 Density
    d
    27 cm3 .30 g/cm3
    11 cm3 .73 g/cm3
    32 cm3 .25 g/cm3
    7 cm3 1.14 g/cm3

Check Your Answer

Yes. A functional relationship does exist. There is exactly one density value (output) for each volume value (input). In addition, a function rule does exist. The function rule is d = 8v Close Pop Up
