Answer:

y = negative 1 over 2x + 11

Explanation:

Given the table :

X - - - - Y

2 - - - - 10

4 - - - - 9

6 - - - - 8

8 - - - - 7

The equation can be modeled using the equation of a line or linear equation and obtaining the equation of the best fit

y = mx + c

x and y are the variables

m = slope or gradient of the line

c = intercept

The equation can be obtained by using the linear regression calculator, Inputting the x and y values which yields the equation of the best fit line.

The result obtained from the calculator is:

ŷ = -0.5X + 11
