a) the slope is 125 people per year
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Note 1997 = 0, then slope = (9900 - 8900) / (9 - 1) = 125
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "b) y = 125x + b
\n" ); document.write( "we are given the point (1, 8900)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "8900 = 125(1) + b
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "b = 8900 - 125 = 8775
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = 125x + 8775
