An affine function is a function of the form
where and are fixed real numbers. Its graph is a straight line: is the slope and the -intercept (the line crosses the vertical axis at ). When the function is linear: expresses proportionality.
Example 4.3
Find the affine function whose graph passes through and . The slope is
Then , and gives , so : . Check with : .
