<span>1. Let t = time in years, with t = 0 representing the year 2005. Let f(t) = the number of students enrolled at the private school and g(t) = the number of students enrolled at the public school. Create the two functions to represent the situation.

f(t) = 85 + 18t </span>⇒ y = 85 + 18x<span>
g(t) = 95 + 15t </span>⇒ y = 95 + 15x

y = y
85 + 18x = 95 + 15x
18x - 15x = 95 - 85
3x = 10
x = 10/3
x = 3 1/3

y = 85 +18(10/3) = 85 + 180/3 = 85 + 60 = 145
y = 95 + 15(10/3) = 95 + 150/3 = 95 + 50 = 145

x = 10/3 or 3 1/3
y = 145
