1 Section 1.2 Linear Functions Prepared by E. Gretchen Gascon

2 Function Notation Function is an algebraic expression where for every x (the independent variable) there is one and only one y (the dependent variable) corresponding to it. A linear equation y = 4x – 3 can be written in function notation as y = f(x) = 4x - 3. x y f(x) You enter a value for x, and the function f(x) always outputs a unique value for y

3 Problem # 13 page 27 Write a cost function given a set of parameters use c(x) to represent y instead of f(x) 10 items cost $650 to make. (the total cost) Given a fixed cost of $400 (the cost regardless of how many items are made, in other words the cost to produce 0 items c(0) = 400. Fixed Cost is the y- intercept (0,400) of a linear graph c(x) = mx + b OR c(x) = (unit cost) x + (fixed cost) Marginal (unit) cost is the slope (25/1) of the linear graph The unknown is the marginal cost. Substitute what you know into the cost function and solve for m. Rewrite the cost function using the value for m

4 Graph of Problem #13 optional

5 Problem # 19 page 29 graph the supply and demand functions on the same graph Supply equation Demand equation To graph in Excel: Create a table, let q be arbitrary, and solve for s(q) and d(q) Next, select the cells A1 : C13

6 How to create the graph in Excel Choose the Chart wizard and select the xy(scatter) Screen may look slightly different in Excel 2007 Next: choose series in “columns”, you will see two lines that cross. You may then choose “Finish”

7 Graph continued Select one of the dotted lines, and right click. From the menu select “Add Trendline” Repeat the process for the other line. Type: Linear Check: Display equation on chart The point of intersection is the equilibrium point. or Supply = Demand

8 Problem #19 page 28 part b find the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price Set the supply function = the demand function and solve for q the equilibrium quantity. Multiply each side of the equation by the common denominator Next: substitute q into the supply function to find the equilibrium price. 36 strawberry-flavored licorice for $54
