y=-3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
>.> I knew that. It is C or D
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
what is the y-intercept?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-3

what is problem again?
you know the equation. what are they asking for?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A.f(x)=3
B.f(x)0.3x
C.f(x)=-3
D.f(x)=-3x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which shows the equation of the line using function notation?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how can the answer be D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you know the equation is y=-3

no matter how we change x the graph doesnt change, am I right?
what does this mean
OpenStudy (anonymous):
this means the equation doesnt depend on x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But what happens to the x?
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
what is the slope of the line?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
every equation doesnt necessarily have to contain x

Slope is -3?
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
does the line slope at all?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh wait no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So it is C right? it is just -3?
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
we say a horizontal line has a slope of zero, so the x term gets multiplied by zero

Which becomes nothing?
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
yeah so
y(x)=mx+b
m=0,
so
f(x)= (0)x+b
= 0+b
= b
where b is the y-intercept
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which is -3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which is C right? :>
OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
yess
