A:
A direct variation function contains the points (2, 14) and (4, 28). Which equation represents the function? 28-14 Find the slope, m: m = ------------ = 14/2 = 7 4-2
Now find the equation of this line by using the point-slope equation: y-28 = (7)(x-4)
You could change this to point-slope form: y = 28 + 7(x-4), or y = 7x
