Question

Write a linear equation. Explain it in number please! 20 points!!!

Answer 1

To find a linear question, we must have two points on the line and we must know the slope.

Let us choose two points at random:

    (-6,12)    and    (-5,14)

Now let us find the slope of the linear line:

 $m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{14-12}{-5--6} = 2$

   So the slope is 2.

Now let us set up the equation which now requires only one point and the slope

      let us use the point (-6,12) and the slope of 2

      $y-12 = 2(x+6)\\y = 2x +12 +12\\y= 2x +4$

So the linear line is y = 2x + 4.

Hope that helps!
