Write a Function in Slope-Intercept Form

Key Questions

How do you evaluate functions?

Assuming your function is expressed using $x$ as a variable, evaluation of the function involves replacing each occurrence of $x$ with some per-specified value.

That is evaluation of a function is always "at some point#.

For example if your function is
$f(x) = 3x^2 -x +4$
and you are asked to evaluate this function at $x=2$

$f(2) = 3(2^2) -2 + 4 = 14$

(Since this question was asked under "Functions in Slope-Intercept Form, your function might look more like:
$y = 5x + 7$
and you might be asked to "evaluate $y$ at $2$ ", but the same idea applies:
$y = 5(2) + 7 = 17$ )
