Answer:
y = 3x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so first we do the equation for rise over run which is y2 - y1/ x2 - x1
so plug the numbers 11 - 17/ 4 - 2 getting the slope -3, now since we found the slope we need to find the intercept form, what you have to do now is plug in a coordinate from the x value and y value one of the pairs essentially so,
y = 3x + b, I chose your first pair
11 = 3 x 2 + b
equals to,
11 = 6 + b
now we want b, by itself.
5 = b
so the total intercept form answer is
y = 3x + 5
I will check over it,
11 = 3 x 2 + 5
11 = 11
I hope this helped!

4x-3 is the answer that you are looking for! I always distribute the negative one to the second set and then line it up like so:
..7x-5
-3x+2
--------
.4x-3
If the recursive formula is a(n)=a(n-1)+3 and a1=2 then the explicit formula is:
a(n)=2+3(n-1) which simplifies to
a(n)=2+3n-3
a(n)=3n-1 so the first three terms are a(1), a(2), and a(3) which are:
2, 5, and 8
