Answer 1

equation : y = 8.35x - 16766.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates: (2010, 17.0) , (2008, 0.3)

To find slope: ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

: ( 0.3 - 17 ) / ( 2008 - 2010 )

: -16.7 / -2

: 8.35 .................this is the slope, m

using the formula: y - y1 = m ( x - x1 ) ............... to find equation

: y - 17 = 8.35 ( x - 2010 )

: y = 8.35x - 16766.5
