Question

What would she have gotten for the equation of the linear function if she had used the ordered pairs (2, 5) and (4, 1) instead?

Answer 1

Answer: y = 2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

slope(m) = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}} {x_{2}-x_{1}}$ = $\frac{1-5} {4-2}$ =  $\frac{-4}{2}$ = -2

Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 5 = -2(x - 2)

y - 5 = -2x + 4

y       = 2x + 9

Answer 2

Answer:it will be y=-2x+9
