a linear model for the total number y of a particular brand of television set sold over x years contains the points A(2, 2,600), B(5, 3,500) , and C(10, 5,000)
---------------
Use the points to find slope = 300 and intercept = 2000.
EQUATION:
y = 300x + 2000
-----------------------------------
how mant television sets were sold after 2 years?
f(2) = 300*2 + 2000
f(2) = 2600 TV sets sold in two years.
