Explanation / Answer

P = 43t + 5707

a) p intercept is plug t = 0 and find P

P = 43 (0) + 5707

P = 5707

P intercept = 5707

the population of mineota was 5707 thousand in the year 2000

c) finding t intercept

P = 43t + 5707

- 5707 = 43t

t = -5707 / 43

t= - 132.7

t intercept is ( -132.7 , 0 )

value of t intercept doesnt makes sense
