Question

Use the table to write a linear function that relates y to x. x −4 −2 0 2 y 6 7 8 9

Answer 1

The linear function that relates y to x can be written as y = x + 6.

This linear function states that for each increase in x, the equivalent increase in y is x + 6. For example, when x=2, y is equal to 8 (2+6=8).
