Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

since you know already that it is a linear equation with a constant change rate (slope), you don't know the equation itself yet ?

you found the change rate (slope).

it is x goes up by 2, and y goes down by 6.

the slope is the ratio y/x representing the y and x changes, and it is always the factor of x.

"down" or "left" means "-","up" or "right" means "+".

the slope here is therefore

-6/2 = -3/1 = -3

so, we know the line function looks like

y = -3x + b

to get b we use one of the x y pairs like (1. 4)

4 = -3×1 + b

7 = b

and the full line function is

y = -3x + 7
