Answer:

y = 20x

m = 20 and b = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For input values of x = 1, output value of y = 20 and for x = 4, y = 80.

Therefore, the equation of this relation can be written as  

[tex]\frac{y - 80}{80 - 20} = \frac{x - 4}{4 - 1}[/tex]

⇒ 3(y - 80) = 60(x - 4)

⇒ 3y - 240 = 60x - 240

⇒ y = 20x

Now, y = mx + b is the equation and hence, m = 20 and b = 0 and the actual equation is y = 20x. (Answer)
