Let x is the number of DVDs purchased and y is the price per DVD (dollars).
\From the table, the points are
.
Substitute the values of
in the slope formula
.
.
To find the y - intercept, substitute the values of
in the slope - intercept from of equation
and solve for b.


Add 2 to each side.

Substitute the values of
in the slope - intercept form of equation
.
To check the equation, substitute the all values for x in the equation
to obtain random y - values of table.
