I think the answer is 9.5 because that is the only number that can be multiplied by 4 that gives you 38.
(4,38) = y=9.5x

Sadly, after giving all the necessary data, you forgot to ask the question.
Here are some general considerations that jump out when we play with
that data:
<em>For the first object:</em>
The object's weight is (mass) x (gravity) = 2 x 9.8 = 19.6 newtons
The force needed to lift it at a steady speed is 19.6 newtons.
The potential energy it gains every time it rises 1 meter is 19.6 joules.
If it's rising at 2 meters per second, then it's gaining 39.2 joules of
potential energy per second.
The machine that's lifting it is providing 39.2 watts of lifting power.
The object's kinetic energy is 1/2 (mass) (speed)² = 1/2(2)(4) = 4 joules.
<em>For the second object:</em>
The object's weight is (mass) x (gravity) = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 newtons
The force needed to lift it at a steady speed is 39.2 newtons.
The potential energy it gains every time it rises 1 meter is 39.2 joules.
If it's rising at 3 meters per second, then it's gaining 117.6 joules of
potential energy per second.
The machine that's lifting it is providing 117.6 watts of lifting power.
The object's kinetic energy is 1/2 (mass) (speed)² = 1/2(4)(9) = 18 joules.
If you go back and find out what the question is, there's a good chance that
you might find the answer here, or something that can lead you to it.

In this problem, you have to find the y- intercept of

. I graphed mine into a graphing calculator. An algebraic way to find it is to input x=0 in the function. The y-intercept is 5. You can see the y-intercept for the new one is -2. That means we shifted the graph down 7 units. (Vertical Shift down 7)
