Answer:
y = 3x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the points :
(2,4) and (6,16).
x1 = 2 ; y1 = 4 ; x2 = 6 ; y2 = 16
Y = mx + b
m = slope
b = intercept
m = Rise / Run
Rise = y2 - y1 = 16 - 4 = 12
Run = x2 - x1 = 6 - 2 = 4
m = 12 / 4 = 3
Y = 3x + b
4 = 3(2) + b
4 = 6 + b
4 - 6 = b
b = - 2
Equation becomes ;
y = 3x - 2
