The slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have:

f(2)=-2\to(2,\ -2)\\f(1)=1\to(1,\ 1).

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{1-(-2)}{1-2}=\dfrac{3}{-1}=-3

Therefore we have y=-3x+b.

Substitute the coordinates of the point (1, 1) to the equation:

1=-3(1)+b

1=-3+b      <em>add 3 to both sides</em>

4=b\to b=4

<h3>Answer: y = -3x + 4</h3>

We have:

f(4)=1\to(4,\ 1)\\f(8)=4\to(8,\ 4)

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{4-1}{8-4}=\dfrac{3}{4}

Therefore we have y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+b.

Substitute the coordinates of the point (4, 1) to the equation:

1=\dfrac{3}{4}(4)+b

1=3+b      <em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>

-2=b\to b=-2

<h3>Answer: y=\dfrac{3}{4}x-2</h3>
