Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Compute slope from the two pairs.
2. Substitute one point into y=mx+b.
3. Solve for b and write the function.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Using only one point without verifying slope.
