I need help understanding how to solve functions. Like,f(x)=x2 and y=2x+1 for example. Can you help me to better understand?
===========
What is "f(x) = x2" ?
Is 2 the exponent?
---
Use ^ (Shift 6) for exponents.
eg, f(x) = x^2
-------------------
y = 2x+1
Pick any value for x and find y.
There are an infinite # of "solutions."
What is it you want to do?
