Question 1165900: I'd really appreciate a response on this.
In 1992, the moose population in a park was measured to be 4970. By 1998, the population was measured again to be 5210. If the population continues to change linearly:
Find a formula for the moose population, P, in terms of t, the years since 1990.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (1) Identify two points
(2) Calculate slope and choose either point
(3) Put into the equation form you want, best being point-slope; and if necessary convert into slope-intercept form.
(0, 4970) and (6, 5210)
Notice one of the points will serve as y-intercept.
No need to start in point-slope form.
