Math Problem Statement

Graph the function f(x)=-1/3x+4. Draw the line x=-6 and graph the point (-6,f(-6))

Solution

Here's the graph of the function f(x)=13x+4f(x) = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4, along with the vertical line x=6x = -6 and the point (6,f(6))(-6, f(-6)), which is plotted in red. The point is located at (6,6)(-6, 6).

Would you like any further details or have any questions about this?

Here are five related questions to expand on the concept:

  1. How does the slope of the line affect its steepness and direction?
  2. What is the significance of the y-intercept in a linear function?
  3. Can you find the x-intercept of the function f(x)=13x+4f(x) = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4?
  4. How would the graph change if the slope were positive instead of negative?
  5. How can you determine if two lines are parallel or perpendicular?

Tip: The slope in a linear equation determines whether the line rises or falls as xx increases.
