Question

If a line passed through (0,0),(1,8),(3,24) and (x,44) what is x?

Answer 1

Answer: x=5.5

Explanation:

First you need to find the slope using the formula
`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`. Thankfully, we have (0, 0) and (1, 8) as points, which makes it easy to find that the slope is 8.

Once we have the slope, we divide 44 by 8 to get 5.5
