Question 1121131: Linear modeling problem:
The first known use of the word "podcast" occurred in the US in 2004. By 2006, 24% of US consumers were aware of podcasting and by 2018 that number had grown to 66%. Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form that models this growth. Let x stand for the number of years after 2006 and let y stand for the percentage of US consumers aware of podcasting.

The description is of two linear points (x,y), if x is number of years since 2004, being (2,24) and (16,66). Find the equation for the line which contains these two points.

The description as given specified x to be years since 2006. The points to use should then be taken as (0, 24) and (12, 66).
