\"f%28x%29+=+%283%2F7%29x+-+320\"____\"y+=+%283%2F7%29x+-+320\"
\n" ); document.write( "1) Use the vertical line test. The vertical line used will intersect the line of the equation: \"f%28x%29+=+%283%2F7%29x+-+320\" at ONLY 1 point.
\n" ); document.write( " Thus, the equation: \"f%28x%29+=+%283%2F7%29x+-+320\" represents a FUNCTION.
\n" ); document.write( "2) A linear equation with an x-coefficient that's < 0 (negative) will have a negative slope (sloping downwards), while a linear equation
\n" ); document.write( " with an x-coefficient that's > 0 ((positive) will have a positive slope or one that slopes upward. In this case, the coefficient of x (\"3%2F7\")
\n" ); document.write( " is > 0, or positive so the slope of the line of the equation: \"f%28x%29+=+%283%2F7%29x+-+320\" slopes upward.
\n" ); document.write( "c) The y-intercept is at the point on the y-axis where the graph of the line intersects the y-axis. To get this, substitute 0 for x and solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( " If the equation is in \"y = mx + b\" form, as this one is, then the y-intercept is simply \"b.\" Looking at this equation, the y-intercept is: \"highlight_green%28-+320%29\". \n" ); document.write( "
