Write an equation for a linear function f that has the given values: f(-3) = 2 and f(1) = 0

A linear function can be written in this form: 

y - y2 = m(x - x2) 


f(-3) = 2 
f(-3) is saying that some function had the number -3 put in for the value of x. The output was a value of 2. Which is our y. So we have a coordinate point of: 
(-3, 2) 

Same thing with f(1) = 0 

(1,0) 

Now we need to find the slope, m. 

(2 - 0) / (-3 - 1) = 2 / -4 = -1/2 

So an equation for the linear function f is this: 
y - 2 = -1/2(x + 3) 

(Note that the -3 we subbed in has become a positive 3 because the equation called for a negative. And two negatives become a positive)

A line passes through the point (9. -9) and has a slope of -4/3.
professor190 [17]

Answer:

y =  \frac{ - 4}{3} x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

using \: point \: slope \: form \\ y - y1 = m(x - x1) \\ y  + 9=  \frac{ - 4}{3} (x - 9) \\ y  + 9=    \frac{ - 4}{3}x   + 12\\ y =  \frac{ - 4}{3} x  + 3
