Question 1001745: In a test of a certain lifting machine it is found that an effort of 50N will life a load of 324 N and that an effort of 70 N will lift a load of 415 N assuming that the graph of effort plotted against load is a straight line find the probable load that will be lifted by an effort of 95 N
I understand that when plotting my graph X = 95 N but what is my Y ?

Answer by vleith(2983) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you are being asked to find y when x = 95.
They told you the plot is linear and then gave you two points on the line. Use that information to find the slope of the line

Now you are asked to find the point on the line that is (95,y)
