The linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation is (B) .
- The word linear function in mathematics refers to two distinct but related concepts.
- A linear function in calculus and related fields is a function whose graph is a straight line, that is, a polynomial function of degree zero or one.
To find the linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation:
Given:
Distribute the right side:
Adds 8 on both sides:
Convert to function notation:
Therefore, the linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation is (B) .
