Question 1 of 5
The graph of a linear function passes through the points and . Which statement must be true about the function?
Explanation
First find the slope:
Using point-slope reasoning with point , the equation is
Simplifying gives
So the line's -intercept is , which must be true.
Concept summary
A linear graph is determined by two points. Find the slope from the points, then use that slope with one point to write the equation and interpret features such as intercepts or whether the line is increasing or decreasing.
