Question

Write a linear equation. Explain it in number please! 20 points!!!

Answer 1

To find a linear question, we must have two points on the line and we must know the slope.

Let us choose two points at random:

(-6,12) and (-5,14)

Now let us find the slope of the linear line:

`m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) =(14-12)/(-5--6) = 2`

So the slope is 2.

Now let us set up the equation which now requires only one point and the slope

let us use the point (-6,12) and the slope of 2

`y-12 = 2(x+6)\\y = 2x +12 +12\\y= 2x +4`

So the linear line is y = 2x + 4.

Hope that helps!
