Graph 2 is the graph that represents the linear function y = –3x + 1.
Points on graph 2 are (0,1) (-1,4) (1,-2)
Substitute the points in the linear function
(0,1)
y = –3x + 1
y = -3*0 +1
y = 1
(0,1) is correct point
(1,-2)
y = –3x + 1
y = -3 * 1 + 1
y = -3 +1
y = -2
(1,-2) is the correct point
Therefore, graph 2 is the correct answer
Question:
Which graph represents the linear function y = –3x + 1?
