Question 996540: The local school district has studied trends in population growth and has provided the following predictions for enrollment in two of their high schools. Current enrollment at Park Valley High School is 1750 students and the enrollment is expected to increase by 55 students per year. The current enrollment at Tisdale High School is 1630 students and the enrollment is expected to increase by 10% per year.

Let f be a function that gives the number of students enrolled at Park Valley High School, P , in terms of the number of years, n , since the prediction was made. What is the rule for this function?

For Park Valley
f(x)=1750 + 55x, where x is the number of years since the number was 1750 students.
