f(x) = x
note : slope is positive 1, so the x term must be positive
also note the graph intersects the curve at y = 0, which means that they y-intercept is zero .
if we substitute this into the general equation for a line
y = mx + b, where m = +1 and b = 0,
we get y = x
or f(x) = x (in function form)
