Question

What is the slope-intercept form of the function described by this table?

x 1 2 3 4
y 2 7 12 17

Answer 1

subtract y2-y1/x2-x1

Answer 2

choose any two points

Answer 3

1- 1/5x+b

Answer 4

?

Answer 5

m=y2-y1
x2-x1 right

Answer 6

yes so choose 2 points

Answer 7

m=2/7-1/2=1/5

Answer 8

it would be the other way
7/2-2/1 = 5/1
because y has to be on top and x on the bottom

Answer 9

O So What Do I Do Now

Answer 10

@Mehek14

Answer 11

so your slope is 5
y = 5x + b
now we have to find b
substitute the value of any points

Answer 12

can you do that?

Answer 13

1-1/5=1/5- 1/5+b

Answer 14

no not like that

Answer 15

lets use 1,2
so since 2 is y and 1 is x,
2 = 1x + b
now solve that

Answer 16

1-1/2=1/2-1/2+b

Answer 17

how do get that???

Answer 18

i dont get what you have to do tbh

Answer 19

im using points 1,2
1 is x so substitute that for x and 2 is y so substitute that for y

Answer 20

so thats the answer

Answer 21

yes the equation

Answer 22

do you get it?
