Let's put the Eqn y = -1777x + 27153 into graph and see the comparison of # of gun deaths vs year:
---> As you see, Number of Gun deaths is going down over the years.
Predicting Number of Gun Deaths in 2006 ==> x=6:
, Number of gun-deaths (2006)
Number of Gun deaths for 2009 ==> x=9:
, Number of gun-deaths (2009)
Now, what year (x) when the gun deaths (y) total to 9383?
----->
, Number of Years when deaths equal to 9383.
Thank you,
