Answer:

(6, 20) (8, 42)

Find the gradient:

(6 = x1, 20 = y1)

(8 = x2, 42 = y2)

Formula = m = y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1

m = 42 - 20 divided by 8-6

m = 22/2

m = 11/1 which is the same as 11

Find the y-intercept:

Then, take one of the coordinates above. In this case, I'll take (6, 20).

  • y = mx + c

Then we replace y and x from the coordinates.

  • 20 = 11(6) + c
  • 66 + c = 20
  • c = 20 - 66
  • c = -46

y = 11x - 46
