Write the equation of a linear function for which f=(-4)=0 and f=(0)=-2

Sagot :

Answer:

y = -0.5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

equation: f(x) = mx + b

f(-4) : -4m + b = 0  ...(1)

f(0):   0m + b = -2            b = -2   ... plug in (1)

-4m - 2 = 0

m = - 1/2 = - 0.5

linear equation: y = -0.5x - 2
