Title: Writing Equations of Trend Lines in Slope-Intercept Form

Instructions: In problems 5-8, write an equation of the trend line in slope-intercept form.

**Graphs:**

**Graph 5:**
- Grid size: 10x10 with axes ranging from 1 to 10.
- Trend: Negative slope.
- Trend line descending from left to right, approximately passing through points (1, 8) and (10, 2).

**Graph 6:**
- Grid size: 10x10 with axes ranging from 1 to 10 horizontally, and 0 to 500 vertically.
- Trend: Positive slope.
- Trend line ascending from left to right, approximately passing through points (2, 150) and (10, 450).

**Graph 7:**
- Grid size: 10x10 with axes ranging from 1 to 10 horizontally, and 0 to 100 vertically.
- Trend: Positive slope.
- Trend line ascending slightly from left to right, approximately passing through points (1, 20) and (10, 80).

**Graph 8:**
- Grid size: 10x10 with axes ranging from 1 to 10 horizontally, and 0 to 250 vertically.
- Trend: Positive slope.
- Trend line ascending from left to right, approximately passing through points (2, 50) and (9, 200).

Note: Ensure each trend line equation is expressed in the form \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.
