The linear equation is y = 4 + 0.5x

How to determine the equation?

The points are given as: (-2,3) and (4,6)

The equation is then calculated using:

[tex]y = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1} *(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

Substitute the known values

[tex]y = \frac{6-3}{4+2} *(x+2) + 3[/tex]

Evaluate

y = 0.5 *(x+2) + 3

Expand

y = 0.5x + 1 + 3

Evaluate the sum

y = 0.5x + 4

Rewrite as:

y = 4 + 0.5x

Hence, the equation is y = 4 + 0.5x
