Use a line already drawn on a graph and its demonstrated points before creating a linear equation. Follow this formula in making slope-intercept linear equations: y = mx + b. Determine the value of m, which is the slope (rise over run). Find the slope by finding any two points on a line.

Answer: The linear expression is x+4.


Step-by-step explanation: We are given to create a linear expression and also to create equivalent expressions and explain your other expressions are equivalent to the original one.

Let the linear expression be


m=x+4.

And also, equivalent expressions be


n=(x^2+6x+8)/(x+2),\\\\o=(x^2-16)/(x-4),\\\\p=(x^2+x-12)/(x-3).

Since,


n=(x^2+6x+8)/(x+2)=((x+4)(x+2))/(x+2)=x+4=m,\\\\o=(x^2-16)/(x-4)=((x+4)(x-4))/(x-4)=x+4=m,\\\\p=(x^2+x-12)/(x-3)=((x+4)(x-3))/(x-3)=x+4=m.

Thus, these three expressions 'n', 'o' and 'p' are equivalent to the original expression 'm'.
