Ok, since you closed the question and I assume to not be interrupted by someone who will just post the answer which does you no good at all, I'm going to explain some about what you have here, ok?

Answer 5

First of all, this is a linear function, which means that not only is the line a straight line (duh, lines are always straight, right!?) but that in between all the points they have graphed for you, the slope will be the same.

Answer 6

sorry can u just give me the awnser

Answer 7

For the first point on the line (0, 48) that means that at 0 time, or right at the beginning with no boiling done yet, the temp of the water started out at 48 degrees. After the first minute, the temp was at 60, hence the next coordinate on the line which is (1, 60). After 2 minutes it was at 72 degrees. Do you see how this works?

Answer 8

i dont have alot of time

Answer 9

Sure, if you don't want to learn, I can just give you the answer.
