Assume that the spring behaves linearly so that
y = a + bx
where 
x = weight of the mass
y =  stretch of the spring
a,b are constants

When x = 70 g, y = 22 cm, therefore
a + 70b = 22             (1)

When x = 105g,  y = 27 cm, therefore
a + 105b = 27           (2)

Subtract (1) from (2).
a + 105b - (a + 70b) = 27 - 22
35b = 5
b = 0.1429

From (1), obtain
a = 22 - 70*0.1429 = 12

Answer:
The required equation is
y = 12 + 0.1429x

What is the slope-intercept equation of the line below?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Slope is known as rise over run. Because the line is pointing "\", it is negative.

The rise, the distance from one point to another, specifically from (0,4) to (1,1) is 3, as 4-1=3. your run is 1-0=1.

So your rise over run is -3/1 or, -3.

Your y-int is where when x=0, y=?

In this case y=4 when x=0.

Your equation is

y=-3x+4
