Find the equation of the linear function represented by the table below in slope-intercept form.
х

-1
-5
2
8

y
-5
7
19
31

y= -1/3+ 5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

You take any two sets of points and do the formula

I chose ( -1,-5) as X1 and Y1 and (-5,7) as X2 and Y2.

Plug that into the formula and you should get . That is your slope.

To find y intercept we use the formula .

We know our slope which is m, and to find y-intercept we use any point that was given to use in place of x and y in the formula. I used (-5,7).

Which looks like .

After solving for b you should get 5.3

Final answer should be y= -1/3+ 5.3
