question 157

Short Answer

Solve the problem.
-The information in the chart gives the salary of a person for the stated years. Model the data with a linear function using the points (1, 24,500)and (3, 26,600). $\begin{array} { l | l } \text { Year, x } & \text { Salary, y } \\\hline 1990,0 & \$ 23,500 \\1991,1 & \$ 24,500 \\1992,2 & \$ 25,200 \\1993,3 & \$ 26,600 \\1994,4 & \$ 27,200\end{array}$
A) y=-1295 x+23,500
B) y=28.7 x+23,500
C) y=1050 x+23,500
D) y=1050x
