Given: Two coordinates are given​(8,0),(0,8)

Find, Equation of the line that passes through given coordinates. To find the equation of the line, first, find out the slope of the line using the formula ​m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\).

Then to find out the equation of the line using the slope-intercept form we will use the formula ​y=mx+c.

For Example, two points given are ​(7,5),(−9,5)

To find out the slope of the line we will substitute the values of the x,y coordinates in the formula ​mm\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

So m\(=\frac{5-5}{-9-7}\)

​\(=\frac{0}{-16}\)

=0

To find out the equation of the line we use the formula y=mx+c, substitute the value of mand one of the coordinates in the above formula, and get the value of c.

Then get the equation by substituting the value of m,c in the formula.

To calculate the slope we’ll use the formula, ​m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

​m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

To calculate the line’s equation, first determine the line’s slope using the formula.​m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)


Then, using the slope-intercept form, we’ll use the formula to obtain the line’s equation y=mx+c.

For instance, consider the following two points:(4,7),(6,13) We’ll use the formula m=\(\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)to get the slope of the line by substituting the coordinate values x,y.

So,​m \(=\frac{13-7}{6-4}\)

We apply the formula y=mx+c to determine the equation of the line,

Get the value of c by substituting the value of m and one of the coordinates in the given formula.

Substituting the value of m,c into the formula yields the equation.

To calculate the slope we’ll use the formula

Page 100  Exercise 22  Answer

Given: f(2)=6, f(7)=−4

Find, Linear function with the given values.

Find the coordinates using the Function given.

To find the equation of the line, first, find out the slope of the line using the formula m=\(\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\).

Then to find out the equation of the line using the slope-intercept form we will use the formula y=mx+c.

To find the coordinates:

The value of  f(x)
would be the y-values, hence we have the points(2,6),(7,−4)

To calculate the slope we’ll use the formula,m=\(\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

m=\(\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

\(=\frac{(-4-6)}{(7-2)}\)

​\(=\frac{-10}{5}\)

=-2

Using the formula of slope-intercept, y=mx+c, along with the values of m and point(7,−4), we calculate c as follows,
​y=mx+c
−4=−2×7+c
−4=−14+c
c=10

Substitute the value of m,c in the equationy=mx+c,
​y=mx+c
y=−2×x+10
y=2x+10

Equation of the line that passes through the given points,(2,6),(7,−4) is y=2x+10

Given: f(−2)=−2, f(4)=10

Find a linear function with the values you’ve provided.

Using the function provided, find the coordinates.

To calculate the line’s equation, first determine the line’s slope using the formula.m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

Then, using the slope-intercept form, we’ll use the formula y=mx+c to obtain the line’s equation.

To find the coordinates:

The y-values are the value of f(x), thus we have the points.(−2,−2),(4,10)

To calculate the formula we’ll use the formula,m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

\(=\frac{(10-(-2))}{(4-(-2))}\) \(=\frac{12}{6}\)

=2

Using the formula of slope-intercept,y=mx+c, along with the values of m and point(4,10), we calculate c as follows
​y=mx+c
10=2×4+c
10=8+c
c=2

Substitute the value of m,c in the equation y=mx+c
​y=mx+c
y=2×x+2
y=2x+2

Equation of the line that passes through the given points, (−2,−2),(4,10)​ is y=2x+2.

 

Page 100  Exercise 24  Answer

Given: f(4)=0,f(2)=8

Find, Linear function with given values.

Find the coordinates using the function given.

To find the equation of the line, first, find out the slope of the line using the formula m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\).

Then to find out the equation of the line using the slope-intercept form we will use the formula y=mx+c.

To find the coordinates:

The value of f(x)
would be the y-values, hence we have the points (4,0),(2,8)

To calculate the slope we’ll use the formula,m \(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

 

m\(=\frac{\left(y_2-y_1\right)}{\left(x_2-x_1\right)}\)

 

\(=\frac{(8-0)}{(2-4)}\)

 

\(=\frac{8}{-2}\)

 

=−4

Using the formula of slope-intercept,y=mx+c, along with the values of m and point(2,8), we calculate c as follows
​y=mx+c
8=−4×2+c
8=−8+c
c=16

Substitute the value of m,c in the equation y=mx+c,
​y=mx+c
y=−4×x+16
y=−4x+16

The equation of the line that passes through the given points, (4,0),(2,8) is y=−4x+16
