Answer:
f(x) = 0.15x +25
Explanation:
We are given two points:
(x, y) = (180, 52) or (350, 77.50)
The slope is given by ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (77.50 -52)/(350 -180) = 25.50/170 = 0.15
The y-intercept is given by ...
b = y -mx
b = 52 -0.15×180 = 25
Then the equation for the linear function is ...
f(x) = mx +b
f(x) = 0.15x +25
