It is less than the whole number.

Why? because 1*WholeNumber = WholeNumber. So if you multiply it by anything smaller than 1, than the result has to be smaller than the result you get by multiplying by one.

What is the linear function equation represented by the graph?

igor_vitrenko [27]

Look at the picture.

The point-slope form of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (0, 1) and (2, 0). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{0-1}{2-0}=\dfrac{-1}{2}=-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\y-1=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x-0)\\\\y-1=-\dfrac{1}{2}x\qquad|+1\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+1$

Answer: $f(x)=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+1$
