Over the y-axis

<span>(x, y) → (−x, y) so ( -5, -3)</span>
y=-2/3x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the scattered plot, it is evident that the line of best fit will have a negative slope from the way the plots are aligned.
Selecting the line of best fit that will cut the y axis at +5, the points can be estimated as;
(5,1.5) and (3.5,2.5)
The slope can be found as;
m=Δy/Δx
m=2.5-1.5/3.5-5 =1.0/ -1.5 = -0.67
Finding the equation as;
m=Δy/Δx
-0.66 = y-2.5/x-3.5
-0.66(x-3.5) = y-2.5
-0.66x+2.3=y-2.5
-0.66x+2.3+2.5=y
-0.66x+4.7=y
⇒⇒ y= -0.66 x + 4.7
⇒⇒y= -2/3 x + 5
