Plz due the graph shows numbers of servings in different amounts of frozen yogurt listed on a carton. write an equation that gives the number of servings y in x pints. explain how to do it.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph that shows numbers of servings (y) in different amounts (x) of frozen yogurt listed on a carton.

To write an equation that gives the number of servings y in x pints, we will have to find the slope (rate of change) of our given linear function.

Since we know that rate of change of a function can be found by vertical change of the function divided by horizontal change of the function.  

m= Slope (rate of change).

=Difference between two y-coordinates.

=Difference between corresponding x-coordinates of the y-coordinates.    

Upon substituting coordinates of two points (0,0) and (4,10) in slope formula we will get,  

The slope of our given line is 2.5.

Now we will write equation of our given line is slope-intercept form. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: , where m=slope and b = y-intercept (initial value).

Upon substituting m=2.5 and coordinates of point (4,10) in slope-intercept form of equation we will get,

Upon substituting m=2.5 and b=0 in slope-intercept form of equation we will get,

Therefore, the equation will give the number of servings y in x pints.

(3x-8) or (3x+8)

step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
