Modeling with Linear Functions · Exercise 54
In 2003, the owl population in a park was measured to be 340. By 2007, the population was measured again to be 285. The population changes linearly. Let the input be years since 2003.
ⓐFind a formula for the owl population, Let the input be years since 2003.
ⓑWhat does your model predict the owl population to be in 2012?
