Create the Linear Function

100

Create the linear function that passes x at -1 and y at 1 

y=1x or y=x (other equations work, these are the first that come to mind)

200

Create a function that passes x at 3 and y at -2

x=1.5y (some things that are similar and give the same answer work too)

Explain What the Slope Represents

100

x=5y

x=time (days)

y=weight (pounds) (of the puppy)

this represents the amount of time in x days it takes for the puppy to grow y amount of pounds.

Explain What the Y-Intercept Represents

100

x=5

y=0

This is where the linear function meets the x-axis in the equation.

Identify the Slope

100

2 coordinate points are listed

(3,5)

(1,-5)

y=5x

anything that says for 1x, it grows 5y

Identify the Y-Intercept

100

2 coordinate points are shown

(5,5)

(-2,-2)

It intercepts x at the origin
