Enter function:
With the function that you entered of y = 4/5x, plot points, determine the intercepts, domain, range
Determine function type:
Since we have a variable with no exponents:this is a linear function
Since this is a linear function
it is a direct variation equation. The constant of proportionality is 4/5
Now Plot points from 10 to -10

Determine the y-intercept:
The y-intercept is found when x is set to 0. From the grid above, our y-intercept is 0Determine the x-intercept
The x-intercept is found when y is set to 0The y-intercept is found when y is set to 0. From the grid above, our x-intercept is 0
Determine the domain of the function:
The domain represents all values of x that you can enterThe domain is (-∞, ∞) or All Real Numbers
Determine the range of the function:
The range is all the possible values of y or ƒ(x) that can existThe range is (-∞, ∞) or All Real Numbers

How does the Function Calculator work?
Free Function Calculator - Takes various functions (exponential, logarithmic, signum (sign), polynomial, linear with constant of proportionality, constant, absolute value), and classifies them, builds ordered pairs, and finds the y-intercept and x-intercept and domain and range if they exist.
This calculator has 1 input.
What 5 formulas are used for the Function Calculator?
The y-intercept is found when x is set to 0The x-intercept is found when y is set to 0
The domain represents all values of x that you can enter
The range is all the possible values of y or ƒ(x) that can exist
For more math formulas, check out our Formula Dossier
What 4 concepts are covered in the Function Calculator?
- domain
- Set of all possible input values which makes the output value of a function valid
- function
- relation between a set of inputs and permissible outputs
ƒ(x) - ordered pair
- A pair of numbers signifying the location of a point
(x, y) - range
- Difference between the largest and smallest values in a number set
