Asked by lauren

The number of grams, f, of dietary fiber recommended daily for children depends on the age, a, of the child, as shown in the following table. Find an equation for f in terms of a.

The table looks like this (not sure how it will show up)

Column on left: Column on right:
Age of child, a Grams of Dietary Fiber
(in years) Recommended Daily, f
3 8
4 9
5 10
6 11
7 12
8 13

I need an equation in terms of dietary fiber, so I know it's going to be f = but from there I don't know what??

Thank you
