In 2002, the number of students in a large urban high school was 2260. In 2004, the number of students was 2230. If the number of students declines linearly, find the equation that represents this relationship. Assume x is the year and y is the number of students. Then use this equation to predict the number of students in 2017

    Its saying that every 2 years the students decreases by 30 such as in 1990 the number of students in an large urban high school is 3490. In 1992 the number of students was 3460 and keep decreasing every 2 years 30 comes off.

    The easiest way to move faster is to:

    Years=The Number Of Students

    2006=2200

    2008=2170

    2010=2140

    2012=2110

    2014=2080

    2016=2050

    But here is the tricky part the question said 2017 it an odd number so we have half of 30 because 30 comes of every 2 years but its the 1st year so it half of the 2 years and half of 30 students so this equals to:

    2017=2035
