Question 1039068: The number of legislators has increased approximately linearly from 1137 positions in 2002 to 1235 positions in 2009. Let N be the number of legislators at T years since 2000.Find an equation of a linear model to describe the data. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x--------------y
2002-2000----1137
2009-2000----1235
(2,1137)
(9,1235)
slope is 98/7=14
point slope formula
y-1235=14(x-9)
y-1235=14x-116
y=14x+1119
