Average reading score is given by the expression,
y = 0.153x + 255.4
Here, x in the number of years past 1970.
To find the year in which the average reading score is 259.378, substitute the value of 'y' in the given expression.
y = 0.153x + 255.4
259.378 = 0.153(x) + 255.4
0.153x = 259.378 - 255.4
0.153x = 3.978
x =
