f(x)=35.5x+6 For each year your plug in the snow total for x and solve 2006 x=53 so 35.5(53)+6=1887.5 2007 x=42 so 35.5(42)+6=1497 2008 x=55 so 35.5(55)+6=1958.5 2009 x=63 so 35.5(63)+6=2242.5 2010 x=58 so 35.5(58)+6=2065 2011 x=47 so 35.5(47)+6=1674.5
Look for the y-intercept since we know the slope is 3 we just going to plug in -5=3(1)+y -5-3=y so the y-intercept is 8 now you can find the equation y=3x-8
