(0, 0) (9, 72) (18, 144) (27, 216) (36, 288) what is the equation of the graph? A: Y = 1/8X B: Y = 8X C: Y = 9X D: Y = 72X

1 answer

To find the equation of the graph, we observe that as the x-values increase by 9, the y-values increase by 72. This indicates that the ratio of the change in y to the change in x is constant and equal to 72/9 = 8.

Therefore, the equation of the graph is Y = 8X, so the correct option is B: Y = 8X.
