Y= mx(slope)+b(y intercept)

y = 5/6x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

rise over run method:

if you count up and across from the first yellow point to the second, you get 5 up 6 across making the slope 5/6

it is positive because it goes up

the y intercept is 1

50.6

step-by-step explanation:

8.75

how-to:

first, we need to find what we have to work with.

since i know that we have 7 (years) and 0.8 (inches), we can use these to solve and find the equation!

secondly, what you want to do, is see that we need to know how much growth out of the 0.8 inches he got in only 1 year, instead of 7 years.

let's try to divide.

7 ÷ 0.8 = 8.75
