Graph f(x)=2x

Problem

ƒ(x)=2*x

Solution

1. Identify the type of function. The function ƒ(x)=2*x is a linear function in the form ƒ(x)=m*x+b

2. Determine the slope and y-intercept. The slope m is 2 and the y-intercept b is 0 meaning the line passes through the origin (0,0)

3. Calculate additional points to define the line. For x=1 ƒ(1)=2*(1)=2 giving the point (1,2) For x=−1 ƒ*(−1)=2*(−1)=−2 giving the point (−1,−2)

4. Plot the points (0,0) (1,2) and (−1,−2) on a Cartesian plane and draw a straight line through them.

Final Answer

ƒ(x)=2*x
