Answer:

Option A.
y=0.28x+0.75

Explanation:

Let

y -----> the height of fudge brownies in centimeters

x ----> teaspoons of baking powder

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to


m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

take the points

(5,2.15) and (6,2.43)

substitute the values


m=(2.43-2.15)/(6-5)


m=(0.28)/(1)=0.28

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form


y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have


m=0.28


(x1,y1)=(5,2.15)

substitute


y-2.15=0.28(x-5)

Isolate the variable y


y-2.15=0.28x-1.4


y=0.28x-1.4+2.15


y=0.28x+0.75
