Answer:
y = 1.5x + 3.2009
Step-by-step explanation:
I plotted your points and drew a linear regression line.
Its equation is
y = 1.5x + 3.2009
The regression line ignores the fact that the points fall along a smooth curve.
A parabolic regression line fits the data much better.
The equation for that line is
y = - 0.1647x² + 4.1357x - 5.6946
It is the equation for a vertical parabola opening downward.
