What does the function notation B(x) = 8x + 25 represent?

Back

The function B(x) represents the cost (in dollars) of renting a bicycle for x days.

Front

If B(x) = 8x + 25, how do you find the number of days a bicycle was rented if the cost was $185?

Back

Set B(x) = 185 and solve for x: 185 = 8x + 25.

What is the general form of a linear function?

Back

A linear function can be expressed as f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What does the slope of a linear function represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of the function; how much y changes for a unit change in x.

Front

What is the y-intercept in the function f(x) = 2x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is 5, which is the value of f(x) when x = 0.

Front

How do you interpret the output of a function?

Back
