We are given that the straight line is formed by connecting ordered pairs:
(x1, y1) = (0, 3)
(x2, y2) = (10, 15)
We are to find for the best fit equation in the slope-intercept form which is in the form of:
y = m x + b
Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The slope m is calculated by:
m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
m = (15 – 3) / (10 – 0)
m = 12 / 10
m = 1.2
The y-intercept b is the value of y when x = 0, therefore b = y1 = 3
Substituting the values of m and b, the answer is:
y = 1.2 x + 3
Answer:
y = 1.2 x + 3
