How do you find the equation of a linear model when given the graph but not the equation

We want to see how to find a linear equation by only looking at the line graph.

First, a general linear equation is written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope of that line is given by:

Then the line is something like:

To get the value of b, we use the fact that if the function passes through  (x₁, y₁), it means that when x = x₁ we also must have y = y₁, replacing that in the equation we get:

Then the linear equation is:

So what we need to do is just look at the graph and find two points, then you can use the above guide to find the linear equation.

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.

2/4 is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

x= total pieces

both ate 9 pieces

mindy ate 3 so troy ate 6

6= (1/4)x

x =24
