The population growth of a state since 2000 in millions of people is represented by a linear model using the trend line y= 0.83x + 30 predict the population in the year 2030

Answer 1

To predict the population in the year 2030 using the linear model y = 0.83x + 30, we would need to substitute x = 2030 into the equation:

y = 0.83(2030) + 30
y = 1684.9 + 30
y = 1714.9

Therefore, the predicted population in the year 2030 using the linear model is approximately 1714.9 million people.
