Answer: f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=x+7
if x=2 then
f(2)=2+7=9
A function is linear if it can be defined by
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is the value of the function.
m is the slope of the line.
b is the value of the function when x equals zero or the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis in the coordinate plane.
x is the value of the x-coordinate.
