We can graph the linear function using a table. First, let's select some arbitrary values from the domain, then substitute them for x in the given function. Solving for w(x) will give us the corresponding values from the range.
| x | w(x)=3/5x+2 | Simplify |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | w( 0)=3/5( 0)+2 | w(0)= 2 |
| 5 | w( 5)=3/5( 5)+2 | w(5)= 5 |
| 10 | w( 10)=3/5( 10)+2 | w(10)= 8 |
Using these x and w(x) values as ( x, w(x)) coordinate pairs, we can plot the points. Connecting these points will give us the graph of the function.
