Question 467501
The average cost of tuitionand fees at a private college in 2000 was 16,200, and in 2005 it was $20,100. Sketch a line that passes trough the points(2000,16200) and (2005,20100)
----
Plot (00,162) and (5,201) to see the shape of the line
----
slope = (201-162)/5 = 7.8
---
intercept = 162
----
Equation: y = 7.8x+162
