Math Problem Statement
f(x) =x/3
Solution
The given function is .
This function represents a linear equation where the slope is and the y-intercept is 0 (i.e., the graph passes through the origin). In this function:
- For any value of , you can find by dividing by 3.
- It is a straight line with a gradual increase (slope = ), which means for every increase of 3 units in , increases by 1 unit.
Would you like more details on the graph, behavior, or properties of this function?
Here are 5 related questions to explore further:
- What is the slope of a linear function and how does it affect the graph?
- How do you graph the function ?
- How does the function change when a constant is added or subtracted to ?
- What happens to the function as approaches infinity or negative infinity?
- Can you solve for if ?
Tip: For linear functions, the slope determines how steep the line is and in which direction it moves (positive or negative).
