Bot GPT 3.5 The first step is to find the slope (m) using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (3 - 1) / (-7 - (-9))
m = 2 / 2
m = 1
Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope formula to find the equation of the linear function:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 1(x - (-9))
y - 1 = x + 9
y = x + 10
Therefore, the equation of the linear function that passes through the points (−9, 1) and (−7, 3) is y = x + 10.
