Answer:
y = 4x - 4
Explanation:
to write a linear equation you need to know 2 components: slope and y-intercept
find slope by selecting 2 points, for example, (1,0) and (2,4)
slope ('m') = difference of y-values 4 - 0 = 4
difference of x-values 2 - 1 1
to find y-intercept ('b'), plug values into the slope-intercept form of a line, which is:
y = mx + b
you need a point and the slope of 4/1; can use any point
we'll use (2,4) where x =2 and y=4 and, again, m = 4
4 = 2(4) + b
4 = 8 + b
-4 = b
