The equation y=-1777x + 27,153 can be used to predict the number of y of gun deaths in the United States x years after 2000, that is, x=0 corresponds to 2000, x=3 corresponds to 2003, x =5 corresponds to 2005 and so on.
Predict the number gun deaths in 2005 and 2009.
------------------------------------------------------------
The predicted gun deaths in 2005 will be _____.
f(5) = -1777*5 + 27153 = 18268
----
The predicted gun deaths in 2009 will be ______.
f(9) = -1777*9 + 27153 = 11160
----
The predicted number of gun deaths will be 9383in the year _____.
-1777x + 27153 = 9383
-1777x = -17770
x = 10
---
Year = 2000+ 10 = 2010
