The polynomial p(x) can be found by multiplying 'x-3' to every term

Now distribute and you have your answer.
We will have the following:
Using exponential regression we will have that the line of best fit will be:

Now, we will have that:

So, the approximation using linear regression gives us as solution approximately 29.7 years; thus the closest one to match is then
Answer:
The numbers on the axis need to follow a repeating pattern
I think it's the last one coz in the graph, 50 jumps to 58 which breaks the repeating rule of 5
If a line is parallel to another, the slopes of both lines are the same. So for this problem, you can infer that the slope of the line you're trying to find is 3.
To find the actual equation of the line, you can use the given coordinates and plug them into the point slope form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
plug the given y coordinate into y1 and the given x coordinate into x1. m is the slope, so plug in 3 for m.
y - 1 = 3(x +2) Use distributive property for right side of equation
y - 1 = 3x + 6 add 1 to both sides to cancel -1 on left side of equation and isolate y
Equation of line: y = 3x + 7
Quadrant 4
