What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that graphs to a straight line. It can be expressed in the form f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the function. It indicates how much the y-value changes for a unit change in the x-value.

What is the y-intercept of a linear function?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. It is the value of the function when x = 0.

How do you find the cost function for a service with a base fee and a variable fee?

Back

The cost function can be expressed as C(x) = base fee + (variable fee per unit * x), where x is the number of units.
