use the equation y= 15x + 350 where y represents the number of cars in thousands that travel I-95 in a year . Predict the number of cars in 8 years.
\n" ); document.write( "If you assume that x represents years, then:
\n" ); document.write( "y=15(8)+350
\n" ); document.write( "y=120+350
\n" ); document.write( "y=470 cars
\n" ); document.write( "However, they really should have told you what x represented. Making assumptions is a dangerous thing to do in math.
