Write A Linear Equation Explain It In Number Please 20 Points class=

Sagot :

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:

 [tex]m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{14-12}{-5--6} = 2[/tex]

   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

      [tex]y-12 = 2(x+6)\\y = 2x +12 +12\\y= 2x +4[/tex]

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

Hope that helps!
