a. The price of accommodation in a hotel depends on the number of nights b. The water pressure in the sea depends on the depth c. The fuel consumption of a car depends on the mileage d. The volume of a cube depends on the length of the side

Explanation / Answer

a. Since the number of nights is a number, it can take integer values.

This can be described with a discrete function.

b. The depth is measured with a unit and can take any value.

This cannot be described with a discrete function.

c. Mileage is measured with a unit and can take any value.

This cannot be described with a discrete function.

d. Length is measured with a unit and can take any value.

This cannot be described with a discrete function.

Therefore, the answer is a.
