Using the line of best fit Use the equations below to find the values.

You may use any of the following methods: - Table - Graph - Plugging values into the equations and solving EXAMPLE: Y = 2 0.5x Find x when y is 12 Using a Table Put equation into Y= Press 2nd GRAPH Find where y is on the table -22 -21 -20 -19 -18 13 12.5 12 11.5 11
-20 -18 -16 -14 -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 -2

Using a Graph Put equation into Y= Press GRAPH TRACE to find where y=12 **Check your answer!**
y
14 12 10 8 6 4 2
f(x)=2-.5x

Using the Equation Put y=12 into the equation: 12 = 2 0.5x Solve the equation: 12 = 2 0.5x -2 -2 10 = -0.5x -0.5 -0.5 -20 = x

x
2 4 6 8 10 12

X = -20.29787 Y = 12.148936 Check: 12 = 2 0.5(-20) 12 = 2 + 10 12 = 12 Now you do it 1. Y = 3X 5 A. Find x when y is 10 B. Find y when x is 10

2. Y = -6 + 0.75X

A. Find x when y = 4

B. Find y when x is 4

3. Y = 12 x

A. Find x when y is 26

B. Find y when x is 26
