find a linear function f given f(2)=1 and f(6)=4. The linear function is f(x)= .....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x) is the same thing as saying "y" So, write as an ordered pair.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2, 1) and (6, 4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2,1) and (6,4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right, so now find the slope. (y1-y0)/(x0-x0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mistyped that. Change in x/change in y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4-1= ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6-2 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought x is on top for slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slope is 3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, other way around. Change in y over change in x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooo okay :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now what
