Question 59624: I need some help on this problem:
I need to rewrite the equation 2x - 3y = -6 as a function of x
is it:
(A) f(x) = 2/3 x + 2
(B) f(x) = 3/2 x -3
(C) f(x) = 3/2 x -6
(D) f(x) = 2/3 x + 6
Thanks,

Hi Jamie,
I just answered another question about writing something as a function of x. I said y=equation. It looks like your book wants f(x)=equation. So change the y to f(x) in my last answer.
:
Rewrite the equation 2x - 3y = -6 as a function of x
is it:
highlight%28A%29 f(x) = 2/3 x + 2
(B) f(x) = 3/2 x -3
(C) f(x) = 3/2 x -6
(D) f(x) = 2/3 x + 6
:
2x-3y=-6
-2x+2x-3y=-2x-6
-3y=-2x-6
-3y/-3=-2x/-3-6/-3
y=(2/3)x+2
f(x)=(2/3)x+2 (A)
Happy Calculating, Jamie!!!
