Answer:
slope of the line that represents this relationship = 21/41
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of a line = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
in 0 matches goals scored by Keith will be Zero
hence y₁ = 0 & x₁ = 0
Keith scored 42 goals in 82 games
=> y₂ = 42 & x₂ = 82
Slope of a line = (42 - 0)/(82 - 0)
= 42/82
= 21/41
slope of the line that represents this relationship = 21/41
