Question

Write the equation of the linear relationship in slope Intercept form, using decimals as needed. 0 2.5 100 200 300 375 725 1075 Enter the equation of the relationship.

Answer 1

Let us first calculate the slope of the function. We need 2 points (0,2.5) and (100,37.5)

so the slope is

`m=(37.5-2.5)/(100-0)=(35)/(100)=(7)/(20)=0.35`

So the equation is

`y=0.35x+2.5`
