Answer:

y = 125x + 775

Explanation:

you can make coordinate points (x, y) from the graph

x = Number of hours

y = Total Charge

(1, 800) and (2, 925)

slope from 2 points = y2-y1/x2-x1

x1 = 1

y1 = 800

x2 = 2

y2 = 925

925 - 800/2-1 = 125/1

m = 125

using y = mx + b, where m = 125, and 1 of the coordinate points you can find the y intercept

multiply 125 times 2

925 = 250 + b

subtract 250 from both sides

b = 675

y = 125x + 675
