Question

Write a linear function f with the values f(0) = 5 and f(2)= -3. f(x) =

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has the form

y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y intercept ( the value of y when x=0)

We are given the point (0,5) so we know b is 5. So we just need to find the slope m

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), we have two points (0,5) and (2,-3)

m=(-3-5)/(2-0)

m=-8/2

m=-4 so our line is

y=-4x+5
