In function notation, where f is the function, f(x)=3x-10. Using f(x) means you can write things like f(0) which means: what is the value of the function when x=0? Think of f for flexibility, because functions have greater flexibility than variables like y.
Flat rate=y intercept
rate per mile=slope
y=3x+10 would be it
1.
3 is the value of the slope (3 dollars per mile)
2.
y intercept is (0,10)
3.
22 miles
y=3(22)+10
y=66+10
y=76
$76
80-32 ÷ 2= 24
( you just do it sdrawkcab)
backwards
Answer:
y = 2x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Looks like we already have the slope of this line: It is 2. Working with the point (1, -5), we have x = 1 and y = -5 and can from this info easily find the y-intercept, b:
y = mx + b becomes
y = 2x + b, which in turn becomes
-5 = 2(1) + b, or
b = -7,
and so the desired equation is y = 2x - 7
