We can use the point-slope form of a linear equation to find the equation of the function:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m is the slope of the line, and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

First, we can find the slope of the line by using the two given points:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

where (x1, y1) = (4, 24) and (x2, y2) = (6, 30):

m = (30 - 24) / (6 - 4) = 3

Now we can use one of the two given points, say (4, 24), and the slope m = 3 to write the equation of the line in point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 24 = 3(x - 4)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

y - 24 = 3x - 12

y = 3x + 12

Therefore, the equation of the linear function is y = 3x + 12.
