2. A linear model for the data in the table is shown in the scatter plot.
x 1 2 4 5 6 7 8 9
y 14 12 11 11 9 7 4 3.5

(a) Which two points should you use to find the equation of the model? Explain.
(b) Use the two points you chose in Part (a) to find the slope of the linear model, rounded to three decimal places. Show your work.
(c) What is the equation of the linear model in point-slope form?
(d) Rearrange the equation you wrote in Part (c) into slope-intercept form. Show your work.
