A local public library decides to track the number of hours that a certain computer is being used. The table represents the number of hours, y, which is dependent on the number of days, x.
x
y
3
21
5
37
7
53
What is the linear equation that represents this situation?
y = 8 x + 45
y = 8 x minus 3
y = 2 x + 16
y = 2 x minus 32
