Consider this scenario: The population of a city increased steadily over a ten-year span. The following ordered pairs show the p
opulation x and the year y over the ten-year span in the form (x, y) for specific recorded years. Use linear regression to determine a function y, where the year depends on the population. Round to three decimal places of accuracy. (2500, 2001), (2650, 2002), (3000, 2004), (3500, 2007), (4200, 2011) Predict when the population will hit 15,000.
Given that the population of a city increased steadily over a ten-year span. The following ordered pairs show the population x and the year y over the ten-year span in the form (x, y) for specific recorded years.
The square root of a negative number is computed as the normal square root (square root of 25 is 5), but due to the negative sign, we must account for "i", which stands for the imaginary unit.
