Graph f(x)=3/2x+2

Question

Graph  f(x)=3/2x+2

mathmale · Answer

Is that 3x/2 or 3/(2x)?  Use parentheses so that there is no doubt what you mean.

brooke..help00 · Answer

$$f(x) = 3\div 2x + 2 $$

brooke..help00 · Answer

Is that correct... I'm confused?

mathmale · Answer

I'm not sure I'd agree.  Why do you think that is correct, Brooke?

newwar · Answer

no 3 over 2x

newwar · Answer

a fraction

mathmale · Answer

Again:  use parentheses to remove any ambiguities about your intent.

I politely disagree; I think it's (3/2)*x.

mathmale · Answer

That is (3/2) x.      It is NOT   3/(2x).

mathmale · Answer

3x/2 would be acceptable, as would be (3/2) x;     3/(2x) is incorrect.

mathmale · Answer

f(x)=(3/2) x + 2:  slope is 3/2; y-intercept is 2.

Graph the y-intercept.  Think of it as (0,2).

Next, following the info in the slope, 3/2,  start at the y-intercept, move 2 spaces to the right and then 3 up.  Plot a point in your new location.  Draw a line thru it and the y-intercept.  Show your work, please.
