You can put this solution on YOUR website! let 2010 be x=0
so we have (0, 348)
and we have (8, 625)
the slope is 277/8 or 34.625
the point slope formula is y-y1=m(x-x1), m slope (x1, y1) point
y-348=34.625*x
y==34.625x+348
in 2030, x=20
y=34.625(20)+348
=$1,040,500
902=34.625x+348
554=34.625x
x=16 years after 2010
2026 is the answer.
