Answer :

ANSWER

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+35[/tex]

EXPLANATION

From the given diagram;

For any straight line;

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+c \\ m=gradient,c=y-intercept \end{gathered}[/tex]

The slope of the straight line is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \\ m=-\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The y-intercept is;

[tex]35[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the straight line is;

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+35[/tex]
