We have been given that the number of species of coastal dune plants in Australia decreases as the latitude, in °s, increases.
Further we know that there are 34 species at 11°s and 26 species at 44°s.
We can express the given information at two ordered pairs as shown below:
Let us find slope of the line through these points:
Therefore, we can write the equation of line in slope intercept form as:
Where b is the y intercept, and we can find its value using one of the two points.
Therefore, the required equation of the linear function is:
