Graph each linear function. 6x-5f(x) - 20 = 0
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Rewrite the given equation to isolate the function \( f(x) \). The original equation is \( 6x - 5f(x) - 20 = 0 \). Add \( 5f(x) \) and subtract \( 6x \) from both sides to get \( -5f(x) = -6x + 20 \).
Divide both sides of the equation by \( -5 \) to solve for \( f(x) \). This gives \( f(x) = \frac{-6x + 20}{-5} \).
Simplify the right-hand side by dividing each term separately: \( f(x) = \frac{-6x}{-5} + \frac{20}{-5} \), which simplifies to \( f(x) = \frac{6}{5}x - 4 \).
Identify the slope and y-intercept from the equation \( f(x) = \frac{6}{5}x - 4 \). The slope \( m = \frac{6}{5} \) and the y-intercept \( b = -4 \).
To graph the function, start by plotting the y-intercept at \( (0, -4) \). Then use the slope \( \frac{6}{5} \) to find another point by rising 6 units and running 5 units to the right. Draw a straight line through these points to complete the graph.
