Answer:

y = 85x + 55

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use the given prices as coordinates we will get the coordinates (2, 225) and (5, 480) and if we use the rise over run which in this case is 255/3 then we get the slope which is $85 and now we plug what we know into y = mx + b. we now have the equation 225 = (85)2 + b which can be simplified to 55 = b and now we can create the equation y = 85x + 55.
