Question 403447: The equation y=-1777x+27,153 can be used to predict the number of "y" of gun deaths in the United States "x" years after 2000, that is, x=0 corresponds to 2000, x=2 corresponds to 2002, x=6 corresponds to 2006, and so on. Predict the number of gun deaths in 2006 and 2008. In what year will the number of gun deaths be 11,160?
My answer for 2006 is 16491 and for 2008 12,937 and my final answer of 2009 will be the year that it will be 11,160. Can anyone verify if I am right or wrong, if wrong provide the right answer. Thank you!
