Answer:
4th option
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 12) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 6) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{6-12}{6-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-6}{4}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 15 ) ⇒ c = 15
y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 15 ← approximate equation of line of best fit
