How to Find a Linear Equation?
To find a linear equation, just get two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) and use the formula y = mx + b. Calculate the slope (m) using (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), and then find the y-intercept (b) using one of the points. Easy as pie!

First-hand experience here: Grab your two coordinates, calculate the slope by (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), and plug into y - y1 = m(x - x1). It works like magic!
Just two things you need: a slope (m) and a y-intercept (b). Plug 'em into y = mx + b and you鈥檙e golden!
Skip the fancy stuff鈥攋ust use y = mx + b and solve for m and b using your data points.
