y =    8.5x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

The slope intercept equation basically says this.

y = mx+b

b = the y intercept(aka where the line crosses the y axis)

m = slope

now here the slope is as x increases by 5, y increases by 42.5. then set up a proportion, do the problem, or use a calculator. 42.5 divided by 5 = 8.5 which means for everyone 1 unit x increase by, y also increases by 8.5.

finally just put a x there, signifying how many x's. it makes pretty much logical sense

22
