The population of a small town in Alabama has shown a linear decline in the years 2000 to 2015. The population in 2000 was 7027, and in 2015 the population was 6172. Write a linear equation expressing the population of this town, P, as a function of t, the number of years since 2000. P(t) = Preview Be sure to use t as your variable! If the town is still experiencing the same rate of population decline, what will the population be in 2020?
