First you add 2000 and 500 and then when you get the answer you add 6 and 12 then you get the answer
Hello!
The equation can be written as seen below. You only need a y-intercept and slope to write the equation.
y=-2x+3 (it intercepts at a y-value of 3).
I hope this helps!
One way to approach this problem is to go ahead and find the actual equation in slope-intercept form.
The slope of the line thru (3,6) and (5,4) is m = (6-4) / (3-5), or -2/2, or -1.
Subbing the known values of m, x and y, we get:
4 = -(5) + b. Then b = 9.
The correct equation (representing the data values in the table) is y = -x + 9.
The answers should be 1D, 2C, 3B, 4A, and 5A.
