Answer:

  y = √(5x+34)

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression formula that matches a square root function to these points can be worked out by a suitable calculator. The attachments shows the points are matched exactly by the function ...

  y = √(5x+34)

__

If you would like to work this by hand, you can put the (x, y) point values into the proposed equation and see what the coefficients need to be:

  y = √(ax +b)

  7 = √(3a +b)   ⇒   49 = 3a +b

  8 = √(6a +b)   ⇒   64 = 6a +b

Subtracting the first equation from the second, gives ...

  (64) -(49) = (6a +b) -(3a +b)

  15 = 3a   ⇒   a = 5

  49 = 3(5) +b   ⇒   b = 34
