Question 694856
so if acre is x that would make snakes y so lets make a couple of ordered pairs
(24(acres),11(snakes)) and (49(acres), 13(snakes))
(24,11) and (49,13) lets find the slope
(13-11)/(49-24)
2/25=slope
Use point slope form to find an equation slope 2/25, (24,11)
{{{y-11=(2/25)(x-24)}}} multiply both sides by 25 to get rid of the fraction
25y-275=2(x-24)
25y-275=2x-48 add 275 to both sides
25y=2x+227 divide by 25
{{{y=(2/25)x+227/25}}} <--slope intercept form
or 
{{{2x-25y=-227}}} <--standard form
