y = 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The linear functions are given by:
y = mx+b
To find the slope, we have to find the change in x and y
The change in x is:
[tex]-14-(42) =-14+42 =28\\14+14= 28[/tex]
The change in y is:
[tex]-28-(-84) = -28+84 = 56\\28-(-28) = 28+28 = 56[/tex]
The slope is:
[tex]Slope = \frac{change\ in\ y}{Change\ in\ x}\\=\frac{56}{28}\\= 2[/tex]
Putting slope in equation of linear function
[tex]y =2x+b[/tex]
To find the value of b, we will put any pair of input and output in the slope-intercept form
So, putting (14,28)
[tex]28 = 2(14) + b\\28 = 28+b\\b = 28-28\\b = 0[/tex]
Hence,
the linear equation for function is:
y = 2x
