Answer:
In the graph, we can see that the relation between length and weight is given by the adjusted line, which passes through the points (24, 16) and (28, 25)
Remember that a linear relation can be written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
If this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope can be calculated as:
a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Then in our case, the slope will be:
a = (25 - 16)/(28 - 24) = 9/4
y = (9/4)*x + b
Knowing that this line passes through (24, 16), we know that when x = 24, y must be equal to 16.
If we replace these in the equation, we can find the value of b.
16 = (9/4)*24 + b
16 = 54 + b
16 - 54 = b - 38
Then the equation is:
y = (9/4)*x - 38
Now that we know the equation, we can simply replace y by 34 pounds to find the value of x.
34 = (9/4)*x - 38
34 + 38 = (9/4)*x
72*(4/9) = x = 32
So we can estimate that the length of a fish that weighs 34 pounds is 32 (I do not know the unit of length, I can't see the horizontal axis on the image)
