Question

Which of the following is the linear parent function

Answer 1

The linear parent function is f(x) = x or y = x. We can scale it to get y = mx and then shift it around to get y = x+b. Combine the scaling and shifts and we have y = mx+b as the slope intercept form template.

Answer: Choice C) f(x) = x

Answer 2

Option: C is the correct answer.

C.) F(x)= x

Explanation:

We know that a linear parent function is a function whose graph is a straight line passing through the origin and the equation of such a function is given by:

y=F(x)=x

Since, it is the simplest form of the equation of all the linear functions that are known to us and hence known as the parent linear function.
