Consider the function represented by the equation y-6x-9=0. Which answer shows the equation written in function notation with x as the independent variable? A.f(x)= 6x+9 B. f(x)=1/6x+3/2 C. f(y)=1/6y+3/2

Verified Answer :

calculista

we have

\(y-6x-9=0\)

Step \(1\)

Clear the variable y

\(y-6x-9=0\)

Adds \((6x+9)\) both sides

\(y-6x-9+(6x+9)=0+(6x+9)\)

\(y=(6x+9)\)

Step \(2\)

Convert in function notation

Let

\(f(x)=y\)

\(f(x)=(6x+9)\)

therefore

the answer is

\(f(x)=(6x+9)\)

Solution:

There are two kind of variables when equation of a function is written

1. Independent variable

2. Dependent Variable

A variable is said to be independent , if it can select constant values by itself.

And, a variable is said to be independent, if it is dependent on other variable of the equation.

The given equation is , y-6 x -9=0

As, we have to write a function in which x is an independent variable and other variable y, will work as a dependent variable.

So, writing the above linear function as,

y= 6 x + 9

f(x)= 6 x + 9 →→Option (A)

Correct representation of function in which x is an independent variable and y is a dependent variable,because if we substitute different real values of x, we get different real values of y.
