Answer: choice C, y = 0.014x+0.85
==============================
Explanation:
Each column of the table represents an (x,y) pair of values
x = number of pages
y = cost
If we look at the first two columns, we see the two points (50,1.55) and (100,2.25). The x value is listed first. Let's compute the slope of the line through these two points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (2.25-1.55)/(100-50)
m = 0.7/50
m = 0.014
So far, we see the answer is between A,B or C as they have the slope of 0.014
Use this slope value, and one of the points -- say (x,y) = (50,1.55) -- to find the y intercept b
y = mx+b
y = 0.014x+b .... plug in the slope found earlier
1.55 = 0.014*50+b ... plug in the point (x,y) = (50,1.55)
1.55 = 0.7+b
1.55-0.7 = 0.7+b-0.7 ... subtract 0.7 from both sides
0.85 = b
b = 0.85
With m = 0.014 as the slope and b = 0.85 as the y intercept, we can say that y = mx+b turns into y = 0.014x+0.85. That narrows the answer down to choice C.

-1
Not very much because things don't always happen the way we want them too
The correct answer is y=-13/10x+13 as it matches the graph
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
D. They have the same y-intercep
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the comparison will be efficient, let's determine the equation of the two points and the x intercept .
(–2, –9) and (4, 6)
Gradient= (6--9)/(4--2)
Gradient= (6+9)/(4+2)
Gradient= 15/6
Gradient= 5/2
Choosing (–2, –9)
The equation of the line
(Y+9)= 5/2(x+2)
2(y+9)= 5(x+2)
2y +18 = 5x +10
2y =5x -8
Y= 5/2x -4
Choosing (4, 6)
The equation of line
(Y-6)= 5/2(x-4)
2(y-6) = 5(x-4)
2y -12 = 5x -20
2y = 5x-8
Y= 5/2x -4
From the above solution it's clear that the only thing the both equation have in common to the given equation is -4 which is the y intercept
