Each person who enters a store receives a $5 off coupon. In the equation y = 5x, y is the total value of the coupons given out by the store, and x is the number of people receiving the coupons.

Wen says the function is continuous, because the number of people is unlimited. Is Wen right or wrong? Explain.

    A continuous function is that which can be graph with an unbroken curve. The number of people may be unlimited, however we cannot count the number of people as negative. Thus, the graph will be stopped in the zero mark (or the origin). Hence, Wen is wrong in saying that the function is continuous.
