How do I create a legitimate function

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

What exactly do you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like it asks me to create a legitimate function and explain how to use it in complete sentences

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've never heard this term before, but I'm assuming that this function must not break the vertical line test. Then that would not be a valid function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Legitimate function as an explicit function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can have any polynomial (( continuous for all values, on the interval of (-infinity, infinity) )) y=mx+b y=mx^2+bx+c y=mx^3+bx^2+cx+d and on, .... ((You can make anything up )) where all those are y functions of x. and m, b, c, d are any constant. Or, y = ln(x) y = b ln(x) y = b ln (x + c) y = b ln (x^m + c) and etc... (( and again, you can make anything up )) y = sqrt(x) (or any other root, with any coefficient.....) I mean there are nthousands of examples you can think of.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or, "legitimate" can mean an implicit function as well.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or, legitimate- as it has to have a slope at least somewhere. (eliminating vertical lines)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or just function with some real domain. Not like y=ln(-x^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

except that you should use regular numbers, not my abstract m, b, c, d .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good luck, and please reply./.....

plz give me a medal
