Question

Think about the function f(x) = 10 - x3. What is the input, or independent variable? f(x), x, or y

Answer 1

the input variable is x

Answer 2

x is the input value.

Explanation:

Given : f(x) = 10 - x³.

To find : What is the input, or independent variable? f(x), x, or y.

Solution : We have given that f(x) = 10 - x³.

Independent variables - The values that can be changed given equation. They provide the "input" change the "output."

Here x is the input value that change the value of f(x)

if x = 1

Then f(1) = 10 - 1³.

f(1) = 10 - 1 = 9.

For x = 2

f(2) = 10 - 2³.

f(1) = 10 - 8 = 2.

Therefore, x is the input value.
