Question 1002276: Solve each problem by writing a linear function
The enrollment at Green Mountain Christian School is increasing at rate of 18 students per year. If the enrollment was 226 in the fall of 2011, write a linear function that models the enrollment. Use your function to predict the number of students enrolled in the fall of 2031. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
