Answer:


f(x)=-(19)/(9)x

Explanation:

Let
(x_1,y_1) = (0, 0)

Let
(x_2,y_2) = (-9, 19)

First find the slope of the function using
\textsf{slope }m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)


\implies \textsf{slope }m=(19-0)/(-9-0)=-(19)/(9)

Now use the point-slope form of a linear equation:
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)


\implies y-19=-(19)/(9)(x+9)


\implies y=-(19)/(9)x


\implies f(x)=-(19)/(9)x

Answer:


\sf y = -2(1)/(9) x

linear function solve:

coordinates given: (0,0), (-9,19)

slope:


\sf (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


\sf (19-0)/(-9-0)


\sf (19)/(-9)

equation:


\sf y - y_2 = m(x-x_2 )


\sf y - 0 = (19)/(-9) (x-0 )


\sf y = (19)/(-9) x


\sf y = -2(1)/(9) x
