Hi
y = 1777x +27153 can be used to predict the number of gun deaths
in the united states x years after 2000
The predicted gun deaths in 2006 = 1777*6 + 27153
The predicted gun deaths in 2008 = 1777*8 + 27153
The predicted number of gun deaths will be 9383 in the year?
y = 1777x +27153
9383-27153 = -17770 = 1777x x = -10 OR year 1990
