You have taken over an abandoned drilling project. After drilling for 2 hours, the depth is 110 feet. After 5 hours, the depth h
as increased to 114.5 feet. Write an equation in the form y = mx + b to describe the relationship between x, the hours of drilling, and y, the depth of the well.
y = mx + b slope(m) = 1.5 use either of ur points..(2,110)...x = 2 and y = 110 now we sub and find b, the y int 110 = 1.5(2) + b 110 = 3 + b 110 - 3 = b 107 = b
