Given: Y = -1777x + 27,153.
1. For yr 2004, substitute 4 for x in the given Eq.
2. For yr 2009, substitute 9 for x.
3. y = -1777x + 27,153 = 7606.
-1777x + 27,153 = 7606.
Solve for x and round off to nearest whole number.
y=1777x+27,153 number of y guns after 2000, that is x=0 coorespod to 2000, x=3, 2003 x=4. Predict number of gun deaths in 2004, 2009 and what year of gun deaths will be in 7606.
