You can put this solution on YOUR website! Each set of (x,y) coordinates below is generated by a linear rule. For each set of coordinates, write an equation to describe the rule. (-1,-7),(0,-3),(1,1),(2,5),(4,13),(5,17)
--------------------------
Find the slope:
slope = (1--3)/(1-0) = 4
-------------
Find the intercept: y = -3 when x = 0
-------------
Equation:
y = 4x-3
