The table shows a proportional relationship.

x 2 4 6 8
y 2.8 5.6 8.4 11.2
What is the equation that represents the table?

Enter your answer as a decimal .
y =
x

Respuesta :

(2,2.8)(4,5.6)
slope = (5.6 - 2.8) / (4 - 2) = 2.8/2 = 1.4

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1.4
use either point (2,2.8)...x = 2 and y = 2.8
now we sub and find b, the y int
2.8 = 1.4(2) + b
2.8 = 2.8 + b
2.8 - 2.8 = b
0 = b

so ur equation is : y = 1.4x + 0..or just y = 1.4x
