Question

Enter an equation that represents the data in the table. 5 15 20 36 y 26 An equation is y =

Answer 1

The equation passes through point (5,21) and (10,26).

Determine the equation of line passing through point (5,21) and (10,26).

$\begin{gathered} y-21=\frac{26-21}{10-5}(x-5) \\ y-21=\frac{5}{5}(x-5) \\ y=x-5+21 \\ y=x+16 \end{gathered}$

So equation is y = x + 16.
