A physicist need help

Geometry Level pending

A physicist was studying the dependence a physical quantity y y on another quantity x x After performing a large number if experiments he discovered that the value of y y varies linearly with x x in other words we can say that y y is linear function of x x and in the language of mathametics we can express it as y = f ( x ) \boxed{y = f(x)}

where f ( x ) f(x) is a linear function. In one of his experiments he needs to plot the graph of f ( x ) f(x) , if it is known that f ( 0 ) = 5 \boxed{f(0) = -5} and f ( 1 ) = 4 \boxed{f(1) = -4} then what will be the angle in degrees that the graph of the function will make with positive direction of x x -axis


The answer is 45.

The function is given to be linear. The rate of change of y wrt x is 1.

Hence the angle it will make will be 4 5 0 45^0
