Question

Write (2 4) and (6 16) in the form y=mx+b

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

  = (16-4)/(6-2)

  =12/4

 =3

We then use the point slope form of a line

y-y1= m(x-x1)

y-4 = 3(x-2)

Distribute the 3

y-4= 3x-6

Add 4 to each side

y-4+4 = 3x-6+4

y = 3x-2

This is in slope intercept form
