Question

Consider the function represented by the equation 6c = 2p - 10. Write the equation in function notation , where c is the independent variable

Answer 1

`p(c)=3c+5`

Explanation:

we have

`6c=2p-10`

we know that

If c is the independent variable

then

p is the dependent variable

Solve for p

That means -----> isolate the variable p

Adds both sides 10

`6c+10=2p`

Divide by 2 both sides

`(6c+10)/2=p`

`3c+5=p`

Rewrite

`p=3c+5`

Write in function notation

`p(c)=3c+5`
