What is the equation if x=1 and y=16/3

There may be more than one way in which to answer this question. I will assume that the "equation" is a linear one: f(x) = mx + b.

Then (16/3) = m(1) + b
This is one equation in two unknowns, so it does not have a unique solution. Was there more to this problem than you have shared?


If we assume that the y-intercept (b) is zero, then y = mx, and

16/3 = 1m, so that m = 16/3, and so y = (16/3)x.
