Problema Solution
The number N of state and federal inmates in millions during year x, where x is greater than or equal to 202 can be approximated by the following formula
N-0.04x-79.02
detrime the year in which there was 1.1 million inmates
Answer provided by our tutors
the year is 2003 when the inmates come to 1.1million
Solution: the equation is N=0.04x -79.02
when N= 1.1million, 1.1=0.04X -79.02
So X =2003
