Which of the following rules describes the function graphed below? a. Output = Input c. Output = (0.5)(Input) + 1.5 b. Output = (2)(Input) – 3 d. Output = (1.5)(Input) + 3

Answer:
Option C
output=0.5(input)+1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
y------> the output
x------> the input
we have
[tex]A(-1,1), B(5,4)[/tex]
Find the slope
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]m=\frac{4-1}{5+1}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{3}{6}=0.5[/tex]
Find the equation of the line
[tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)[/tex]
we have
[tex]m=0.5[/tex]
[tex]A(-1,1)[/tex]
substitute
[tex]y-1=0.5(x+1)[/tex]
[tex]y=0.5x+0.5+1[/tex]
[tex]y=0.5x+1.5[/tex]
remember that
y=output
x=input
substitute
output=0.5(imput)+1.5
