The rate of change from 1995 to 2010 is 20 students per year and the linear function that models the data will be: y=20x-38700

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

In the year 1995, there were 1200 students and in the year 2010, there were 1500 students.

If x represents the year and y represents the number of students, then two points in form of (x,y) will be: (1995, 1200) and (2010, 1500)

So, the rate of change or slope = (change in value of y / change in value of x) =\frac{1500-1200}{2010-1995}= \frac{300}{15}=20

Now, plugging  slope(m) = 20 and first point (x_{1}, y_{1}) =(1995,1200)  into <u>point slope form of linear equation</u> y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1}) , we will get.....

y-1200=20(x-1995)\\ \\ y-1200=20x-39900\\ \\ y= 20x-39900+1200\\ \\ y= 20x-38700
