We often use functions to model or represent situations and relationships. These representations can be as equations, graphs, ta

bles, or even verbal descriptions. What does it mean to "represent" something? In what other situations have you heard that term used, and how was its meaning in those situations similar to its usage in algebra?​

A representation is the provision of a portrait or a description of an object,

a  person, or an observed situation in a particular (defined) way.

  • In algebra, functions are used to accurately serve as representation that show equivalence of observed phenomena or system.

  • Graphs are used to present data in a pictorial form, such that an end user can more quickly and or easily understand the information conveyed.

  • Equations are used to represent equivalent situations in a manner to provide guidance that enable a user of the equation to find the required result or information.

  • Tables represent the data in a situation in an organized manner.

  • Venn diagrams are used to represent the relationship between group numbers in a set.

Other situations where the term is used are;

  • Athletes representing countries in tournaments

The similarity in the usage of the term to algebra is that the athletes have

the attributes of the country they represent, such that the people of the

country are viewed as strong as the athletes representing them.

Write the equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line y = –4x and passes through the point (2,
Gnesinka [82]

1. If the line that we are searching for is perpendicular to the line y = -4x, this means that the gradient of our line and the gradient of the perpendicular line will multiply to give -1. Thus if we call the gradient of our line m, then:

m*(-4) = -1

-4m = -1

m = 1/4

2. Since we know that m = 1/4 and we have a point (2,6) on our line, we can use the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) to find the equation of our line, where (x1, y1) is the coordinates of a point on the line. Thus:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = (1/4)(x - 2)

y - 6 = (1/4)x - 2/4 (Expand (1/4)(x - 2))

y = (1/4)x - 1/2 + 6 (Simplify 2/4 and add 6 to each side)

y = (1/4)x + 11/2 (Evaluate -1/2 + 6)

Slope-intercept form is given by y = mx + c. As our equation is already in this form, there is nothing more to do. Thus, the answer is y = (1/4)x + 11/2
