Help pls i really need help 1. Write the equation of the line of best fit using the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b. Show all your work, including the points used to determine the slope and how the equation was determined.

y= x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope-intercept form is equal to

y= mx + b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

step 1:

Find the slope

Take two points from the graph

see the attached figure

about (37,40) and (47,50)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to: y2-y1

                                                                                                               x2-x1              

substitute

M= 50-40/47-37

10/10 = 1

step 2:

Find the y-intercept

we have: m=1

point (37,40)

substitute in the linear equation: 40= (1) (37) + b

solve for b: 3

therefore

The linear equation is: y = x + 3

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
