The regression line graphed in the scatterplot have the equation

  • y = x + 1

How to find the equation

The equation graphed is written in the slope intercept form s below

y = mx + c

where

m = slope

x = intercept

the slope, m is calculated using the points on the graph (1, 2) and (9, 10)

m = (y₀ - y₁) / (x₀ - x₁)

m = (2 - 10) / (1 - 9)

m = (-8) / (-8)

m = 1

c = y intercept, from the graph

c = 1

Hence we have the equation as: y = x + 1
