Answer 1

I can’t tell from the question alone — I need the scatterplot or the equation/coordinates of the line of best fit. Please either

- upload the graph, or
- give the line equation (y = mx + b), or
- give two clear points that lie on the line.

Then I’ll plug x = 8 into the line and give the best approximation. (If you want the method now: compute the slope m = (y2−y1)/(x2−x1) from two points, find b from y = mx + b, then evaluate y at x = 8 and round to the nearest dollar.)
