Answer:
y = 0.8x + 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of the line passing through a point (x', y') is,
y - y' = m(x - x')
Here, m = slope of the line
Slope of a line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is,
m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
From the table attached,
Line represented by the table passes through two points (1, 1.3) and (1.5, 1.7).
Therefore, slope of the line (m) = [tex]\frac{1.7-1.3}{1.5-1}[/tex]
m = [tex]\frac{0.4}{0.5}[/tex]
m = 0.8
Equation of the line passing through (1, 1.3) will be,
y - 1.3 = 0.8(x - 1)
y = 0.8x - 0.8 + 1.3
y = 0.8x + 0.5
