Answer:
y =
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a linear graph is usually written in the following format...
y = mx + b
Where m would be the slope, usually referring to rise over run and b would be the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). From the graph, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at point 3 so b would be 3. The graph also shows us that for every 1 value that the line rises it moves to the right 2 values. Therefore, the slope would be 1/2. Using these values we can create the following equation...
y =
Use a conversion factor and turn pounds to ounces. 1 pound = 16 ounces so
