Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
y ---->insect chirping rate in times per minute
we have the ordered pairs
(82,61) and (91,124)
step 1
Find the slope
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute the values
step 2
Find the equation of the line
we know that
The equation in slope intercept form is equal to
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
we have
---> the units are chirps per minute/degree F
take the point (82,61)
substitute and solve for b
substitute
