Answer:
Population function (Based on 2007) = 7,600 + 700n
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Population in 2009 = 9,000
Population in 2014 = 12,500
Computation:
Increase in population per year = [12,500 - 9,000] / 5
Increase in population per year = 700
Population in 2007 = 9,000 - [2 x 700]
Population in 2007 = 7,600
Population function (Based on 2007) = 7,600 + 700n
n = number of year
