Question

Wrote a linear function f with the values f(-4)=0 and f(4)=2

Answer 1

y = (1/4)x + 1

Explanation:

The points mentioned are (-4,0) and (4,2).

We can find the slope m:

(2-0)/(4-(-4)) = 2/8 = 1/4

We now have the equation y = (1/4)x + b

Now we must find the y-intercept.

Plugging in the first point:

0 = (1/4)*(-4) + b

0 = -1 + b

1 = b

y = (1/4)x + 1
