Answer: C. Y = 5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to write, or decide on, the equation for the blue line as this line represents the trend line for this scatter plot. We will write this in slope-intercept form. See attached for a visual.

    First, we will find our slope. We will use [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] for this since we have a graph with clear points. See attached, we count up [5] and then count to the right [1] for a slope of 5.

     -> Slope = 5

   Now, we will find our y-intercept. This is where the line intersects the y-axis. The line hits the y-axis at point (0, 5) giving us a y-intercept of 5.

     -> Y-intercept = 5

   Lastly, we will write our equation and decide on an answer.

y = mx + b

y = (5)x + (5)

Y = 5x + 5

             C. Y = 5x + 5
