A linear function is an algebraic equation in which each term is either a constant or the product of a constant and (the first power of) a single variable. For example, a common equation,
y
=
m
x
+
b
, (namely the slope-intercept form, which we will learn more about later) is a linear function because it meets both criteria with
x
and
y
as variables and
m
and
b
as constants. It is linear: the exponent of the
x
term is a one (first power), and it follows the definition of a function: for each input (
x
) there is exactly one output (
y
). Also, its graph is a straight line.
Answer:
3. Since the range of the original function is limited to y> 6, the domain of the inverse function is x ≥ 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain of a function is the range of its inverse, and vice versa. The only answer choice that expresses this relationship is choice 3.

Comment on the answer choice:
The slope of the function is undefined at x=4, so restricting the function domain to the portion with positive slope means the domain restriction of the function is x > 4. That also means the range restriction of the function is y > 6. The domain restriction of the inverse function is the same: x > 6, not x ≥ 6. The answer choice has an error.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are given to us which are perpendicular to each other and we need to find out the value of a . The given equations are ,
Step 1 : <u>Conver</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>equations</u><u> in</u><u> </u><u>slope</u><u> intercept</u><u> form</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> the</u><u> line</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
and ,
Step 2: <u>Find </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>slope</u><u> of</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>lines </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
Now we know that the product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1. Therefore , from Slope Intercept Form of the line we can say that the slope of first line is ,
And the slope of the second line is ,
Step 3: <u>Multiply</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>slopes </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
Multiply ,
Multiply both sides by a ,
Divide both sides by -1 ,
<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> of</u><u> a</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
