Steps
Step 1: For each (x,y) point calculate x2 and xy.
Step 2: Sum all x, y, x2 and xy, which gives us Σx, Σy, Σx2 and Σxy (Σ means "sum up")
Step 3: Calculate Slope m:
m = N Σ(xy) − Σx Σy N Σ(x2) − (Σx)2
Step 4: Calculate Intercept b:
b = Σy − m Σx N.
Step 5: Assemble the equation of a line.
Second option:
-7x^2+4x+2
8-4k=40
-4k=32
k=-8 is the answer
