The table below shows the high jump height , in feet, and the long jump distance , in feet, for eight athletes. Which of the following equations best fits the data?
| Height x | 2.0 | 2.5 | 3.0 | 3.5 | 4.0 | 4.5 | 5.0 | 5.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Distance y | 7 | 9 | 11 | 12 | 14 | 15 | 17 | 18 |
y = 0.8x + 5
y = 2.5x + 2
y = 3x + 1
y = 2x + 7
