Jerimiah Collier · Answer 1

p=3.5r

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation can be expressed with the formula y=mx+b where m is the slope, b is the y intercept. y is the dependent variable while x is independent variable

So 3.5 is the slope in this situation. p is dependent s p=y

r is the independent variable so r=x

there are no y-intercepts in this situation

p=3.5r
