Question
Write an equation the represent the linear function
Answers
GPT-4o mini
To write an equation that represents a linear function, we typically use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is:
\[
y = mx + b
\]
where:
- \(y\) is the dependent variable,
- \(m\) is the slope of the line (the rate of change of \(y\) with respect to \(x\)),
- \(x\) is the independent variable, and
- \(b\) is the y-intercept (the value of \(y\) when \(x = 0\)).
If you provide specific values for the slope and intercept, or two points through which the line passes, I can help you write a specific equation for the linear function.
