table that shows the hair lengths y (in inches) of your friend and her cousin in different months x.
Month Friends Hair(in) Cousins Hair(in)
3 4 7
8 6.5 9.
To solve for the cousins hair, recall that the equation of a line is given by
y = mx + c
From the table,
7 = 3m + c . . . (1)
9 = 8m + c . . . (2)
(1) - (2) ⇒ -2 = -5m
Substituting for m into equation (1) gives:
Therefore, the equation representing the growth of the cousin's hair is given by y = 1.2x + 5.8
