Question 693831: how do you write an equation for a linear function f with the given values
the problem i need help wiht is
f(-4)=5,f(2)=2

Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given are x and y values, in the form of the function.
Therefore,
f(-4)=5 is (-4, 5)
f(2) =2 is (2, 2)
...
First, find slope

Second, take slope and one point within the point-slope formula
y - 5 =
y - 5 =
y - 5 =
y - 5 =
y =
y = x + 3
The linear function is then,
