Answer:
The number of students enrolled in 2012 is approximately 17,400,000 to the nearest 100,000
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 0.1967x + 15.66
x = years since 2003
y = number of students enrolled in millions
In 2012, x = 9 (2012 is 9 years from 2003)
y = 0.1967(9) + 15.66
y = 1.7703 + 15.66 = 17.4303 millions = 17,430,300 = 17,400,000 to the nearest 100,000
