Use the Coordinate Plane below to graph the following linear equation for the range x [0,6] using the equation y=x/2 This graph is a regular (x,y) grid.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Range is for y, not x. Do you mean domain?

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Well I am doing a math page and this is exactly what the question is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, anyway. To do this (I'm assuming its referring to domain) you would simply graph the line only for x-values 0-6 with solid endpoints.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The slope is 1/2, so (0,0) *no b-value* to (6,3) in a straight line would work.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just make sure to finish it with solid endpoints, not arrows.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I made the endpoints huge to point them out, you don't have to.

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Ok Is that the whole answer

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

I can put that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As far as I know, yes.

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Ok there are a few more questions that go with this.

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

@CasidyCat

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What is the constant of variation (k) in the equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What is the independent variable in the equation?

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Wouldn't it be like x or something like that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep!

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What is the dependent variable in the equation?

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Would that be y

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

@CasidyCat

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right again!

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Sorry @CasidyCat I accidentally clicked on it and just decided to look.

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Hello

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from the other side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm such a troll

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What does that mean

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What is the dependent variable

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

What are the coordinates when x = 40? @CasidyCat - I have to go to bed but when I get up I will see you answer. Thanks so much for your help!

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

I will actually just wait until you are done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They don't exist. Remember, the domain stated that 6 was the largest possible x-value. What a tricky, tricky question.

OpenStudy (darkbeautystar):

Ok...Thanks so much and I will talk to you later

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay! Let me know if you need more help!
