Answer:

Y=15x

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Okay so let's approach this problem!</h2><h2 />

X is books and Y is total cost

Let's find the slope!

Y2-Y1/ X2-X1

Just replace

$\frac{150 - 90}{10 - 6}$

$\frac{60}{4} = 15$

The slope is 15

$y = 15x + b$

Now replace x and y with coordinates and solve

$150 = 15(10) + b \\ 150 = 150 + b \\ - 150 \\ 0 = b$

The final equation:

y = 15x

That's it! If you have any questions please ask! Brainliest Appreciated.
