Scenario: The population in a small US city has been increasing linearly. In 2006, the population of this town was 37,878. By the year 2019, it grew to 54,570. Part 1 Use what we have learned in our class about writing linear equations and functions to create an algebraic model as a function that represents this growth. 1. Algebraic model as a function: If this trend continues, use the model to predict the population in that town by 2025. 2. Predicted population by 2025: Part 2 The mayor of this city is applying  for a grant to expand its city limits using your model. He can get the grant only if the population reaches 75,000 or more by the year 2035. 3. Should the mayor apply for this grant based on your model?  Explain your answer and show how you used the model to get those results.
