x coordinates for years after year number 2000;
y coordinates for percent children.
The two ordered pairs, or points, are (7, 54.5) and (9, 52.4).
(1) Calculate slope.
; compute the value.
(2) Calculate the y intercept, best done using form ;
.
Substitute either point to compute b.
(3) Restate the equation using the values found for m and b.
(4) Now you can answer the question. Year 2008 means x=8. Year 2012 means x=12.
