is a function of , or
given:
This gives me the point (1,1)
This gives me the point (4,10)
For the point (1,1):
(1)
For the point (4,10):
(2)
Multiply (1) by and subtract from (2)
(2)
(1)
Substitute this in (1)
(1)
The equation is answer
check:
does it go through (1,1)?
OK
Does it go through (4,10)?
OK
