Question

write this equation in function form:
y - 7 = 1/3(x-9)

Answer 1

Assuming they want y to be the output of the function, x to be the input, and the function to be called f(x):

Add 7 to both sides

y = 1/3(x-9) + 7

Replace y with f(x)

f(x) = 1/3(x-9) + 7

Any questions?

Answer 2

sorry. i meant to write in terms of x. i got y = 1/3x +4. is that right?

Answer 3

Oh, if you simplify the function then yes, it is

f(x) = 1/3x - 3 + 7 = 1/3x + 4
