Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is y = mx + b
m being the slope, rise over run. And b being the y-intercept. Right off the bat we can visually see the y-intercept is -4.
To find slope, we need to take two sets of coords and apply the slope fomula. The slope fomula is change in y divided by the change in x. The function itself is straight, so that means the slope will be the exact same no matter which points you choose.
(4, -1) and (8, 2) are coords on the line. Do 2 - (-1) to get 3. then do 8 - 4 to get 4. Finally, we just gotta do 3/4 which is simply .
We have the slope of 3/4 and we have the y-intercept of -4. Just plug it in the standard formula of y = mx + b to get:
