Question

find an equation for the linear function which has y-intercept 4 and x intercept 7

Answer 1

the general linear equation is y = mx + b

We are given that the y intercept (b) = 4 so y = mx + 4

You get the x intercept by setting y = 0, or 7m + 4 = 0 or m = -4/7

Therefore, y = (-4/7)x + 4
