Bernice found that the slope of a trend line is –3 and a point on the trend line is (8, 10). She wanted to find the equation of the trend line. Her work is shown below. 1. y = negative 3 x + b. 2. 8 = negative 3 (10) + b. 3. 8 = negative 30 + b. 4. 8 + 30 = negative 30 + 30 + b. 5. 38 = b. Examine Bernice’s steps.In which step did she make an error? In step 1,she used the wrong equation. In step 2,she switched the x and y coordinate values. In step 3,she needed to add -3 and 10 In step 4,she needed to -30 on both sides
