Here's a graph of a linear function. Write the

Natalija [7]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{4}x+3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept → (0, b)

From the graph we have the points (4, 4) and (0, 3) → b = 3.

We have the equation:

$y=mx+3$

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Put the coordinates of the points:

$m=\dfrac{3-4}{0-4}=\dfrac{-1}{-4}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Finally we have:

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}x+3$

The points (-6, r)<br> and<br> (6,3) lie on a line with slope 3/4. Find the missing coordinate r.

NeTakaya

Answer:

r = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

$y = mx + b$

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope 3/4

This means that $m = \frac{3}{4}$ , and thus:

$y = \frac{3}{4}x + b$

(6,3)

This means that when $x = 6, y = 3$ . We use this to find b. So

$y = \frac{3}{4}x + b$

$3 = \frac{3}{4}(6) + b$

$b = 3 - \frac{18}{4} = \frac{12}{4} - \frac{18}{4} = -\frac{6}{4}$

$y = \frac{3}{4}x - \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3x - 6}{4}$

(-6, r)

r is y when $x = -6$ . So

$y = \frac{3(-6) - 6}{4} = -6$

So r = -6.
