Step-by-step explanation:
1) <u>The two points are</u>:
a) On the first swing she swings forward by 18 degrees: <em>(1, 18)</em>
b) On the second swing she only comes 13.5 degrees forward: <em>(2,13.5)</em>
2) <u>The general equation using the form given is</u>:
3) <u>Substitute the two points</u>:
4) <u>Divide the second equation by the first one</u>:
⇒ 13.5 / 18 = B
⇒ B = 0.75
5) <u>Substitue B = 0.75 into the first equation</u>:
18 = A (0.75) ⇒ A = 18 / 0.75 = 24
Hence, the equation is:
