Every function is a rule which tells you how to associate inputs and outputs. The input, also known as independent variable, is often indicated with the letter 
, while the output, also known as dependent variable, is often indicated with the letter 
.
With this notation, we write 
, read "y is a function of x", in the sense that the value of the variable y depends on the value of the variable x, and f is the function that tells you how y depends on x.
In your example, you have 
, which means "subtract four times the input (4x) from 2"
So, it doesn't matter which input you chose (i.e. the value for x), because you will always have to behave this way:
- Pick an input value, x
- Multiply it by four to get 4x
- Subtract this number from 2: 2-4x
Here are some examples of explicit calculations: if I choose 
and input, the workflow will be
- Pick an input value, 2
- Multiply it by four to get 8
- Subtract this number from 2: 2-8=-6
So, if the input is 2, the output is -6
Similarly, if we choose 
as input, we have:
- Pick an input value, 0
- Multiply it by four to get 0
- Subtract this number from 2: 2-0=2
So, if the input is 0, the output is 2. And so on: for every possible value for x you have the correspondant value for y, with the function f telling you how to associate one with the other.

The variance of the binomial distribution of the number of households with landline service is 2.
<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>
It is the probability of <u>exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.
The variance of the distribution is given by:
V(X) = np(1 - p)
In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:
n = 8, p = 0.504.
Hence the variance is given by:
V(X) = 8 x 0.504 x 0.496 = 2.

The exact measure of the angle is 45°.
<h3>
How to get the angle?</h3>
We know that the terminal side passes through a point of the form (√2/2, y).
Notice that the point is on the unit circle, so its module must be equal to 1, so we can write:
We know that y is positive because the point is on the first quadrant.
Now, we know that our point is:
(√2/2, 1/√2)
And we can rewrite:
√2/2 = 1/√2
So the point is:
( 1/√2, 1/√2)
Finally, remember that a point (x, y), the angle that represents it is given by:
θ = Atan(y/x).
Then in this case, we have:
θ = Atan(1/√2/1/√2) = Atan(1) = 45°
