Analysis
To find the correct equation that represents the relationship between X (Time in minutes) and Y (Calories burned), we can use the given data points to determine the equation of the line that best fits the data.
Let's analyze the given data points:
(30,300) (45,450) (60,600) (90,900)
From these points, we observe that as X (Time) increases, Y (Calories) also increases. This suggests a linear relationship between X and Y.
To find the equation of the line, we can use the slope-intercept form: Y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Let's calculate the slope m:
Using points (30,300) and (90,900):
Now that we have the slope m=10, we can use the point-slope form of the equation of a line to find b:
