Answer:
It is a linear function. The equation is y=56x+191
Explanation:
If you calculate the differences between each of the attendance values, you find that they each go up by 56 for every increase in the games by 1. Since this "first difference" is the same number it is linear. (If the second difference is the same it would be a quadratic equation) The linear equation here would be y=56x + 191. The slope is found by dividing the change in Y values, or 56, by the change in the x values. or 1. To find the value of b, which is the y-intercept, you can just subtract 56 from 247 because the y intercept is the y value that goes with an x value of zero.
