Question

Consider the function represented by 9x+3y= 12 with x as the independent variable. How can this function be written using

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x)=-3x+4

(can't see some of your choices)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want x to be independent means we want to write it so when we plug in numbers we can just choose what we want to plug in for x but y's value will depend on our choosing of x.

So we need to solve for y.

9x+3y=12

Subtract 9x on both sides

     3y=-9x+12

Divide both sides by 3:

     y=-3x+4

Replace y with f(x).

    f(x)=-3x+4
