Math Problem Statement

Write 2y=6x+8 in function notation

Solution

To write 2y=6x+82y = 6x + 8 in function notation, follow these steps:

  1. Solve for yy to express the equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+by = mx + b): 2y=6x+8    y=3x+42y = 6x + 8 \implies y = 3x + 4

  2. Rewrite yy as f(x)f(x), which represents the function notation: f(x)=3x+4f(x) = 3x + 4

Thus, the equation 2y=6x+82y = 6x + 8 in function notation is: f(x)=3x+4f(x) = 3x + 4

Would you like me to explain any specific step further or solve related examples?

Tip:

When rewriting equations in function notation, ensure all terms involving yy are isolated on one side to express it explicitly as a function of xx.
