Question 1 of 5
The table shows values of and for a linear relationship.
If this relationship continues, which equation represents the relationship between and ?
Explanation
From the table, when increases by , increases by , so the slope is . That means the equation has the form . Using the point , substitute to get , so . Therefore, the equation is .
Concept summary
For a linear relationship in a table, find the slope from the change in over the change in , then use one point to find the constant term.
