Answer 1

here we can write the equation of your line. In order to that, keep in mind that your line passes at point (1.5, 10) and at point (2, 11).
So waht is the equation of your line?

Answer 2

1.5 -2 10-11

Answer 3

i think how did you write it last time

Answer 4

\[\frac{{y - 10}}{{11 - 10}} = \frac{{x - 1.5}}{{2 - 1.5}}\]
please simplify

Answer 5

idk could you do it the way you did for me last question>

Answer 6

@Michele_Laino is the answer 6m

Answer 7

hint:
the equation is:
\[\begin{gathered}
y - 10 = 2\left( {x - 1.5} \right) \hfill \\
y = 2x + 7 \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]

Answer 8

what do you get when x=5?

Answer 9

hint:
y= 2*5+ 7=...?
