Use function notation to write the equation of the line. http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1346000_1346500/1346433/1/9e51b3345eabcd1ca070cdd65f907d0cdc7ee4a9/HS_A1G2_S2_116070.jpg Help!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at the line, it is going thru (0, 0) right ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

can u figure out the slope of line ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, What?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I bet u heard of "slope" before, eh ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It goes up, and across one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes, and it goes right by 1 unit so slope = 1/1 = 1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so you have slope = 1, and y-intercept = 0 can u write the equation of line ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

equation of line in slope-intercept form : \(y = mx + b \) m = slope b = y-intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=1x?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

^ yes !

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

in function notation it wud be : \(f(x) = x \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh ok! I get it!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good :)
