i need help. I got some of the work done, this is what i have- Wendy played her favorite video game for 8 hours last week. Today, Wendy's parents restricted her to 6 additional hours each week for the next 9 weeks. Create the function, f(x), that models Wendy's total video game time, and explain what each number in the situation represents graphically, using complete sentences. my work: 8 hours last week + 6 additional hours each week for the next 9 weeks. f(x)=6x+8

So I'm thinking it would be y=8x+6. She started out 8 hours a week then her parents increased it to 6 additional hours.

do i solve it

OpenStudy (ltrout):

No, it's asking for a function. y= and f(x) are the same thing. So y=8x+6 and f(x)=8x+6 are the same. For the answer you would put f(x) = 8x+6. 8x means... 6 means... Just write 2 complete sentences for what 8x means and what 6 means. Hopefully my answer before this will allow you to come up with the sentences :)
