The graph shows the projections in total enrollment at degree granting institutions from Fall 2003 to Fall2012The linear model, y= 0.2145x + 15.79, provides the approximate enrollment, in millions, between the years 2003 and 2012, where x = 0 corresponds to 2003, x = 1to 2004, and so on, and y is in millions of students.(a) Use the model to determine projected enrollment for Fall 2008.The projected enrollment for Fall 2008 is millions.(Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Respuesta :

In order to find the projected enrollment for 2008, we need to use the value of x equal to 5, because x represents the number of years after 2003.

Then, using the linear model with x = 5, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=0.2145\cdot5+15.79\\ \\ y=1.0725+15.79\\ \\ y=16.8625 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth, we have y = 16.9.
