Answer:
y = -50.25x + 1140
Step-by-step explanation:
since it's constant, it's gonna be a linear equation.
delta y over delta x, then use one of the y values to find b
(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
336-537 = -201
16-12=4
-201 / 4 = -50.25
m = -50.25
336 = -50.25 (16) + b
336 = -804 + b
add 804 to both sides
1140 = b
y = -50.25x + 1140
