Linear Function

Straight line depreciation is calculated by taking the original book value and subtracting an equal amount each year, determined by dividing the original value by the approximate life of the asset. The formula for finding the value of a machine after x years is V(x) = Original Value - (Original Value / Life)x. For example, a $120,000 machine depreciated over 10 years would have a value of $72,000 after 4 years using straight line depreciation.

Linear Function

A Linear Function Is a function of the form


f ( x)  mx  b
where m and b are real numbers and m is the slope and b is the

b
y - intercept. The x – intercept is
m

The domain and range of a linear function are all real numbers.

Graph
Graph of a Linear Function
The linear function can be graphed using the slope
and the y-ntercept
Example If f ( x)  3 x  2 m = 3 b = 2

The linear function can be graphed using the x and


the y-intercepts
Average Rate of Change
The average rate of change of a Linear Function is
the constant
y
m
x

For example, For f(x)= 5x - 2 , the average rate of


change is m =5
Page 121 #15
• f(x) = -3x+4
• The slope is m = -3, the y-intercept b = 4
• The average rate of change is the
constant m = -3
• Since m =-3 is negative the graph is
slanted downwards. Thus the function is
decreasing
Page 121 #19
• f(x) = 3
• f(x)=0x + 3
• m=0 b=3
• The average of change is 0
• Since the average rate of change, m = 0
• The function is constant neither increasing
or decreasing
Page 121 #21
• To find the zero of f(x), we set f(x) = 0 and
solve.
• 2x - 8 = 0
• x = 8/2 = 4
• y-intercept
• Will graph in class
Page 121 #25
• To find the zero of
f(x), we set f(x) = 0
and solve.

• 2 x-8=0
• x = 16
• y-intercept
• Will graph in class
Linear or Non Linear Function
• If a function is linear the slope or rate of
change is constant
• That is y is always the same

• Cost Function: C(x) = 0.38x + 5 in dollars
• Find Cost for x = 50 minutes
• C(50) = .38(50) + 5 = 19+5= $24

• Given Bill, find cost


• C(x) = 0.38x + 5 = 29.32
• 0.38x = 24.32 x = 24.32 /.38 x = 62

• Estimated Cost of Monthly Bill, find Maximum minutes


• 0.38x + 5 = 60 0.38x = 55 x = 55 /.38 x = 144.8
• Can use as many as 144 minutes

Supply(S) and Demand(D)
• Equilibrium: Supply = Demand
• S(p) = -2000 + 3000p = D(p) =10,000 -1000p
• -2000 + 3000p =10,000-1000p
• 4000p =12000 p = 3000
•
• Quantity sold if Demand is less than Supply
• If 10,000 -1000p < -2000 +3000p 4000p > 12000 p > 3000

• The price will decrease if the quantity of demand is less than the
quantity of supply

Straight Line Depreciation
• Straight Line Depreciation = Book Value / approximate life
• Let V(x) be value of machine after x years
• Cost of machine = Book Value = V(0)
• V(x) = 120,000 – ($120,000 / 10)x = -12,000x +120,000
Page 122 # 54
Straight Line Depreciation(cont)
• Book value after 4years = –12000(4)+1210,000 =120000-
8000=72000
• After 4 years the machine will be worth $72,000
