Answer with explanation:

We are given a equation in terms of variable x and y as:


y=9x+1

Yes, this formula describes y as a function of x.

Since, the value of y could be obtained corresponding to each value of x by using this formula.This means that x is the input or the independent variable and the y is the output or the dependent variable which depends on x.

y is a function of x means that it vary according to the change in x.
