Math Problem Statement

Given the graph of the function, find the specified values. Copy the graph.

Solution

To analyze the graph of the function, let's first identify the key elements visible in the image.

Observations:

  1. Graph Type: The graph represents a straight line, indicating a linear function.
  2. Slope and Intercept: The line passes through the origin (0,0) and another grid point at (2,3).

Finding the Linear Function f(x)f(x):

From the graph, we can determine the slope (mm) of the line:

m=ΔyΔx=3020=32m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{3 - 0}{2 - 0} = \frac{3}{2}

Thus, the function has the slope 32\frac{3}{2}.

Since the line passes through the origin (0,0), the y-intercept (bb) is 0.

Function Equation:

f(x)=32xf(x) = \frac{3}{2}x

Specified Values:

If you need specific values (like f(2)f(2), f(5)f(5), etc.), please let me know which values you want to compute.

Would you like more details, or do you have any questions?

Here are five related questions to expand on this information:

  1. What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, and how is it used to derive the equation of a line?
  2. How can you determine the slope of a line from a graph with different coordinate points?
  3. What are the steps to graph a linear equation given in slope-intercept form?
  4. How does the slope of a line affect its angle of inclination relative to the x-axis?
  5. How would the equation change if the line had a different slope or y-intercept?

Tip: When analyzing graphs, always identify key points like intercepts and slope, as they provide essential information about the function's characteristics.
