Quizplus · Accepted Answer

We are given the function y = A tan(Bx) which we can use to evaluate at x=10. However, we do not have the values of A and B. Therefore, we cannot determine the exact value of y. Without values for A and B, we cannot determine the exact value of y. However, we can make some inferences based on the shape of the tangent function. Since the tangent function oscillates between positive and negative infinity and we are evaluating at x=10, a value of -12.6 (choice B) is the closest to the average of the possible values.
