45. +-15 points LarLinAlg8 5.4.041 My Notes Ask Your Teacher Four-legged animals run with two different types of motion: trotting and galloping. An animal that is trotting has at least one foot on the ground at all times, whereas an animal that is galloping has all four feet off the ground at some point in its stride. The number of strides per minute at which an animal breaks from a trot to a gallop depends on the weight of the animal. Use the table and the method of this example to find an equation that relates an animal's weight x (in pounds) and its lowest galloping speed y (in strides per minute) Weight, x 500 25 35 1000 50 75 Galloping Speed, y 192.5 183.7 171.8 164.2 125.9 114.2 Take the natural logarithm of each coordinate to obtain points of the form (In x「 In y).

(Round your answers to three decimal places.) In y- In x Find an equation of the form y-ax that relates an animal's weight x (in pounds) and its lowest galloping speed y (in strides per minute).
