Use the graph to write a linear function that relates y
to x
.

Answer:
y = -7/2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Using coordinates (-2,6) and (0,-1)
then slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-1 - 6)/(0 - -2) = -7/2
so y = mx+ b
y = -7/2x + b
Using (0,-1)
y = -7/2x + b
-1 = -7/2(0) + b
b = -1
so y = -7/2x - 1
