The question is incomplete other wise it is really easy to solve if you now how to make the line of equation. As we know the formula to calculate the line of equation is y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Where m is the slope. y1 is the first y co ordinate. x1 is the first x co ordinate.

And the formula for slope is as we know is m = y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1.

Where m is the slope. y2 is the second y co ordinate. y1 is the first y co ordinate. x2 is the second x co ordinate. x1 is the first x co ordinate.

Each row has two more boxes than the row above. The first row has one box 

The boxes in a row form an arithmetic sequence with the first term, a₁ = 1 and the common difference, d=2.
The n-th term is
a_{n} = a+(n-1)d
The sum of n terms is
S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}(a_{1} + a_{n})

PLEASE HELP!!! BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT COMPLETE ANSWER!

Answer:

y=16x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(1,17) and (2,33).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1,17), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=1 and y1=17.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (2,33), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=2 and y2=33.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=  

33 - 17/  2 - 1

or...

m=  16/ 1

or...

m=16

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=16x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(1,17). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 17.

(2,33). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 33.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=16x+b. b is what we want, the 16 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (1,17) and (2,33).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(1,17). y=mx+b or 17=16 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=17-(16)(1). b=1.

(2,33). y=mx+b or 33=16 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=33-(16)(2). b=1.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(1,17) and (2,33)  is   y=16x+1
