Question
I have a graph with the y axis as Cost of Goods Sold and the x
axis is Price.  The plotted points are (.14,6), (.163,7), (.19,8),
(.225,9),(.265,10). Can you help me with an equation for the line?  

Answer
Hi Brannon,
I'm only askng you to do this in order to save time.
Do all the points fall on a single line? If they do, simply take any two points (x1,y1 and (x2,y2) and use the formula
(x - x1)/(y - y1) = (x2 - x1)/(y2 - y1)
Do this and you'll get the equation.
Let me know if all the points don't fall o the same line.
Regards.
