In 1995, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $146 per credit hour. In 2001, tuition had risen to $200 per credit hour.
Determine a linear equation to represent the cost, C, of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990. (Assuming the cost increases by the same amount each year.)
Linear Equation:
In the year 2008, tuition will be ($ )per credit hour.
In the year( ) , tuition will be $317 per credit hour
