Using Desmos, enter the data from the table and create a linear regression equation. Let x = time in years since

1900 and let y = minimum hourly wage. Remember, the line that is graphed is a “line of best fit” or a “trend line.”

The equation for that line is called a linear regression equation. Use the information given to you by desmos to

write the linear regression equation. Do not round.


Use the equation to estimate the minimum hourly wage of a U.S. worker in 2025. Use Desmos and round to the

nearest cent.
