    To write an equation in function form: remove the x term from the side y is on by adding or subtracting the x term from both sides of the equation; then divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the y term, so that y is expressed solely in terms of x. For example, to write the equation 2x + 3y = 18 in function form, subtract 2x from both sides and then divide both sides by 3 to obtain y = (18 - 2x)/3.

    How do you write an equation in

    function form?
    • Activator: How do you solve a two step
    equation?

    • Apply that concept to this problem and


    solve for y:

    2x + 3y = 18
    Writing an equation in function
    form.
    • You want to remove the x term from the side y is
    on and move it to the other side of the equal sign.

    • To do this either add or subtract the x term from


    both sides.

    • Next divide by the coefficient of the y term.

    • Now your equation is in function form.
