Answer:
Part A ) Equation represents a Linear Function.
Part B )
[tex]Slope = \frac{9}{5}\\y-intercept\\F=32[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Temperature in degrees ( C ) and Fahrenheit ( F ) relation is given as
[tex]F=\frac{9}{5}\times C + 32[/tex]
Part A:
Linear function:
Linear functions are those whose graph is a straight line.
A linear function has the following form. y = f(x) = a + bx.
A linear function has one independent variable and one dependent variable.
The independent variable is x and the dependent variable is y.
Now,
∴ [tex]F=\frac{9}{5}\times C + 32[/tex] is a linear function as C independent variable and capital F as dependent variable.
Part B:
[tex]y = mx + c\\[/tex]
represent a straight line having
slope = m
y - intercept = c
So, on comparing the given degrees and Fahrenheit relation equation [tex]F=\frac{9}{5}\times C + 32[/tex] we will get
[tex]Slope = \frac{9}{5}\\y-intercept\\F=32[/tex]
