<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The slope of the line is 77
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
We know the speed is constant and that the mile-marker location over time can be represented by a line. This means that the equation is linear.
<u>The slope can, therefore, be calculated as follows:</u>

where (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) are two points on the line
We are given that the two points (1, 123) and (3, 277) are two points in the line
<u>Substitute with them in the above equation to get the slope as follows:</u>

Answer:
y= 6971 -7 x OR y = -7x + 6971
Step-by-step explanation:
the 6971 is the original number you started with, you are now decreasing by 7, so you use the value of -7. The x is the number of years that pass by, so the variable x affects the number 7 because it says decreases by 7 per year. The x does not go with 6971 as that number doesn't get directly affected.
