Question 752766
Plot the x and y coordinate pairs on graph paper.  Look for two pieces of numeric information from this graph.


Draw the best line you can to contain as many of the points as possible or to include the set of points as well as possible.
(*) Identify where the line intersects the y axis.  This is the y-intercept. Call this number, {{{b}}}.
(*) Compute the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change as you move from left to right on the line; this is the slope.  Call this number, {{{m}}}.


Your function is {{{y=(m)*x+(b)}}}.
