Step 1 :Given data points: \(\begin{tabular}{|r|r|} \hline Time (min) & Mass (g) \\ \hline 11 & 50 \\ \hline 15 & 46 \\ \hline 37 & 31 \\ \hline 47 & 18 \\ \hline 50 & 14 \\ \hline \end{tabular}\)
Step 2 :Use linear regression to find the slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit.
Step 3 :Calculate the slope (m) and y-intercept (b): \(m = -0.89\) and \(b = 60.14\)
Step 4 :Write the equation in the form y = mx + b: \(y = -0.89x + 60.14\)
Step 5 :\(\boxed{y = -0.89x + 60.14}\)
