Chapter 2.4, Problem 22E
Birth Rate In 1990 the number of births per 1000 people in the United States was 16.7 and decreasing, on average, at 0.136 birth per 1000 people each year. (Source: National Center for Health Statistics.)
(a) Write a formula for a linear function f that models the birth rate x years after 1990.
(b) Estimate the birth rate in 2012 and compare this estimate to the actual value of 13.7.
