There will be 1045 homes in the town by the year of 2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, it can be determined that

The equation given is y = 84x + 625.

The variables x and y are represented as :

  • x is the  number of years since 1995.
  • y is the total  number of homes in the town.

Now, we need to predict the number of homes in the  town in the year 2000.

We know that, x is the number of years since 1995 to 2000.

∴ The value of x = No.of years from 1995 to 2000

⇒ x = 5 years

To calculate the y value :

Substitute x=5 in the given equation.

⇒ y = 84(5) + 625

⇒ y = 1045 homes.

∴ There will be 1045 homes in the town by the year of 2000.
