I need an equation that models that data. It was in a table and that's the domain and range.

First, for simplicity's sake, assume that the data is modeled by a linear equation that has a straight-line graph:     y = m x  + b.  You are given several points (x,y) which are your "knowns."  Your job here is to determine values for the slope, m, and the y-intercept, b.
