To find: The best fit linear equation in
Answer to Problem 39SGR
Line of best fit is
Explanation of Solution
Given information: There are two points (2,650) and (5, 1280) passes through the best fit line.
Formula: Let’s find slope using formula
Calculation:
Let’s find slope of the line using formula and the two points (2,650) and (5, 1280)
=
=210
Plug in ‘ m’ as 210 into
Now, use one of the given points to find the value for ‘ b’ . Let’s use (2,650).
Subtract both sides 420.
Plug in the value of ‘b’ into the equation, we get
