Question 1133777: Write a formula for a linear function f(x) that models the situation, where x is the number of years after 2006. In 2006 the average adult ate 54 pounds of chicken. This amount will increase by 0.8 pounds per year until 2011. What is the linear function f(x)?

let 2006 =0
2011 = 5
f(x)=54+0.8x, the 54 being constant at the beginning, and 0<=x<=5
