Question

What is the equations that models the linear relationship shown in the table?

Answer 1

For this case we can find the slope with this formula:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(-13+25)/(-3+6)=(12)/(3)=4`

then the slope is m =4

Now we can find the intercept on this case like this:

We can select the poitn (x= -6, y= -25)

-25= 4(-6)+b

b= -25 +24= -1

Then the correct option is:

y= 4x -1
