To determine whether a set of points represents a function, we need to check if each input (in this case, the first coordinate of each ordered pair) is associated with exactly one output (the second coordinate). In other words, a function cannot have two different outputs for the same input.

Let's examine the given points:

1. (4, 3) - input is 4, output is 3
2. (3, 5) - input is 3, output is 5
3. (3, 8) - input is 3, output is 8
4. (8, 6) - input is 8, output is 6
5. (2, 14) - input is 2, output is 14
6. (4, 1) - input is 4, output is 1

Now, let's focus on the inputs:

- The input 4 appears in two pairs: (4, 3) and (4, 1). Since 4 is associated with two different outputs (3 and 1), this violates the definition of a function.

- The input 3 also appears in two pairs: (3, 5) and (3, 8), which means 3 is associated with two outputs (5 and 8).

Because multiple outputs correspond to the same input (4 and 3), the set of points you provided does not define a function.

To find the y-intercept of the equation \(y = 5x - 3\), you need to determine the value of \(y\) when \(x = 0\).

Substituting \(x = 0\) into the equation:

\[
y = 5(0) - 3
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
y = 0 - 3 = -3
\]

Therefore, the y-intercept of the equation \(y = 5x - 3\) is \(-3\). In coordinate form, the y-intercept is represented as the point \((0, -3)\).

The slope of a line in the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, \(y = mx + b\), is represented by \(m\), where:
- \(m\) is the slope,
- \(b\) is the y-intercept.

In the equation \(y = 5x - 3\), the slope \(m\) is \(5\).

Therefore, the slope of the line represented by the equation \(y = 5x - 3\) is \(5\). This means that for every increase of 1 unit in \(x\), \(y\) increases by 5 units.

To write the equation of a line in point-slope form, we need the slope of the line and a point on the line. The point-slope form of a line's equation is given by:

\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]

where \((x_1, y_1)\) is a point on the line and \(m\) is the slope.

### Step 1: Calculate the slope \(m\)

To find the slope \(m\) between points \(A(1, 5)\) and \(B(3, 2)\), use the formula:

\[
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]

In our case:
- \( (x_1, y_1) = (1, 5) \)
- \( (x_2, y_2) = (3, 2) \)

Substituting in the coordinates:

\[
m = \frac{2 - 5}{3 - 1} = \frac{-3}{2}
\]

### Step 2: Use point-slope form

Now that we have the slope \(m = -\frac{3}{2}\) and we can use point \(A(1, 5)\) for the equation.

Using the point-slope formula:

\[
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
\]

Substituting the values:

\[
y - 5 = -\frac{3}{2}(x - 1)
\]

### Final Equation

Thus, the equation in point-slope form is:

\[
y - 5 = -\frac{3}{2}(x - 1)
\]

You can also use point \(B(3, 2)\) to get the same line:

\[
y - 2 = -\frac{3}{2}(x - 3)
\]

Both forms represent the same line.

To find \(f(3)\) for the function \(f(x) = 7x + 6\), simply substitute \(3\) for \(x\) in the function:

\[
f(3) = 7(3) + 6
\]

Calculating this:

\[
f(3) = 21 + 6 = 27
\]

Therefore, \(f(3) = 27\).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
To find \(f(3)\) for the function \(f(x) = 7x + 6\), you can follow these steps in detail:

### Step 1: Understand the Function
The function \(f(x) = 7x + 6\) represents a linear relationship where:
- The coefficient of \(x\) (which is \(7\)) is the slope of the line.
- The constant term (which is \(6\)) is the y-intercept, or the value of \(f(x)\) when \(x = 0\).

### Step 2: Identify the Value to Substitute
You need to find the value of the function when \(x = 3\). This means we will substitute \(3\) for \(x\) in the function.

### Step 3: Substitute the Value into the Function
Replace \(x\) with \(3\) in the equation:

\[
f(3) = 7(3) + 6
\]

### Step 4: Calculate the Multiplication
Perform the multiplication first:

\[
7(3) = 21
\]

### Step 5: Add the Constant
Now, take the result from the multiplication and add \(6\):

\[
21 + 6 = 27
\]

### Step 6: State the Result
Thus, you find that:

\[
f(3) = 27
\]

### Summary of Steps
1. Identify the function: \(f(x) = 7x + 6\).
2. Determine the input value: \(x = 3\).
3. Substitute \(3\) into the function: \(f(3) = 7(3) + 6\).
4. Perform the multiplication: \(7(3) = 21\).
5. Perform the addition: \(21 + 6 = 27\).
6. State the final answer: \(f(3) = 27\).
