b is the intial value starting point

y is the dependent variable

m is the slope

x is the constant rate of change

derivative is the slope if the line is a curve

y ⇒ how far up or down is the line,

x ⇒ how far along is the line,

b ⇒ the value of y when x = 0 and

m ⇒ how steep the line is.

Answer:

The total number of U.S. high school students that played on a sports team that year can be estimated to be 7,950,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the random sample, we can expect that $\frac{250000}{500000}=\frac{1}{2}$ of all students played on a sports team that year. So in the bigger sample of 15900000 high school students, we can expect $15900000 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 7950000$ students to have played on a sports team that year.
