Write the following linear equation in function notation. y = 13x - 4

f(x) = 13x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Function notation is simply expressing an equation as a function. That is given a variable what is the output of the expression when using a value for it?

Essentially we just do therefore for this question we have:

just needed some points but try socratic

, and

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

, and for
