To rewrite this in <strong>function notation<\/strong>, we replace yyy with f(x)f(x)f(x), where fff represents the function and xxx is the input variable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Function notation is used to show that the value of yyy depends on xxx. In this case, the function can be written as:f(x)=2x+3f(x) = 2x + 3f(x)=2x+3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that for any value of xxx, you can find f(x)f(x)f(x) (or yyy) by substituting xxx into the equation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why the other options are incorrect:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A) x = 2y + 3<\/strong>: This reverses the relationship and incorrectly expresses xxx as a function of yyy. It also doesn\u2019t follow the given equation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>B) f(y) = 2x + 3<\/strong>: This notation suggests that yyy is the independent variable (input) and xxx is the dependent variable (output), which does not reflect the original equation y=2x+3y = 2x + 3y=2x+3.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D) f(y) = 2y + 3<\/strong>: Again, this incorrectly uses yyy as the input to the function. It changes the relationship between xxx and yyy that was defined in the original equation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, <strong>C) f(x) = 2x + 3<\/strong> is the correct form of the given equation in function notation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/learnexams-banner6-1697.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267578\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Write y = 2x + 3 using function notation.
