<PRE><B>Question 1039099</B>
the percentage of sexual harassment charges filed by men has increased approximately linearly from 9.8% in 1995 to 16.5 percent in 2002. Let P be the percentage of Sexual Harassment charges filed by men at T years. 
Find an equation of a linear model to describe the data.___ 
---------
Let &quot;x&quot; be the number of years after 1995
You have two points:: (0,9.8%) and (7,16.5%)
slope = (16.5-9.8)/7 = 0.957
intercept:: f(0) = 9.8
------
Form:: y = mx + b
f(x) = 0.957x + 9.8
