Answer:
-2 and 24
Step-by-step explanation:
the trend line is linear,
let the unknowns be A and B
hence the equation becomes
K = AJ + B
from the graph we can see the following:
when J = 0, K = 24 (substitute this into the equation)
K = AJ + B
24 = A(0) + B
24 = B (Answer)
Also notice that when K = 0, J = 12
together with our previous finding that B = 24, the equation becomes:
K = AJ + B
0 = A(12) + 24
12A = -24
A = -24 / 12
A = -2 (answer)
