Consider the function represented by the equation 6q = 3s - 9. Write the equation in function notation, where q is the independent variable.

s = 2q + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has the form:

● y = mx + b

● y is the output of the function

● x is the variabke that we input

● b is the y-intetcept.

Focus on y and x.

Notice that y depends of the value of x. The value of y changes by changing x. So the value of x controls the output y.

y is dependent but x is not.

● 6q = 3s - 9

We want q to be the independent variable wich means that q will be the input. Therefore s should be the output.

The strategy we are going to follow is separating s in one side alone.

● 6q = 3s - 9

Add 9 to both sides

● 6q + 9 = 3s -9 + 9

● 6q + 9 = 3s

Divide both sides by 3

● (6q + 9)/3 = (3s)/3

● (6q)/3 + 9/3 = s

● s = 2q + 3

So the answer is s = 2q + 3
