Question

Consider the function represented by the equation y-6x-9=0Which answer shows the equation written in function notation with x as the independent variable?

Answer 1

The independent variable and dependent variable are on opposite sides of a function.  This is because we want to solve for the dependent variable when the independent variable is known.

 

We need to solve for y in the equation.  Add 6x and add 9 on both sides of equation.

 

y = 6x + 9

 

y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.
