The graph shows the relationship between the number of months different students practiced baseball and the number of games they
won:
Part A: What is the approximate y-intercept of the line of best fit and what does it represent?
Part B: Write the equation for the line of best fit in slope-intercept form and use it to predict the number of games that could be won after 13 months of practice. Show your work and include the points used to calculate the slope.

Hey there!
The answer is
To solve this we use subtraction, because "the difference" represents subtraction, so:
Now, we must find a common denominator, and we can see that and
both go into
. To get to
, we multiplied the first fraction by 5 and the second by 6, so we now have:
This is equal to
