Q. In P.E. class, Owen gets to climb ropes! His height above the ground after xx seconds of climbing is given by the function f(x)f(x). The height is measured in feet.\newlineWhat does f(12)=25f(12) = 25 tell you?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) Owen climbed to a height of 2525 feet in 1212 seconds.\newline(B) Owen climbed to a height of 1212 feet in 2525 seconds.
  1. Understand function f(x)f(x): Understand the function f(x)f(x) and what xx represents.\newlineThe function f(x)f(x) represents Owen's height above the ground in feet after xx seconds of climbing. The variable xx represents the number of seconds Owen has been climbing.
  2. Interpret given function value: Interpret the given function value f(12)=25f(12) = 25.\newlineSince f(x)f(x) gives Owen's height after xx seconds, f(12)=25f(12) = 25 tells us that Owen's height above the ground is 2525 feet after 1212 seconds of climbing.
  3. Choose correct option: Choose the correct option based on the interpretation of the function value.\newlineBased on the interpretation from Step 22, the correct option is:\newline(A) Owen climbed to a height of 2525 feet in 1212 seconds.
