. The National Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network track data on the number of various types of organ transplants performed each year in the United States. In 1997, 209 lung transplants were performed and in 2004, 603 transplants were performed. a. What is the rate of change (slope) of lung transplants between 1997 and 2004?

b. Assuming the relationship is linear, find the linear function T(x) of the line for the number of
transplants for a given year after 1995. Round all values to the hundredths place.

c. Use the equation to predict the number of lung transplants in 2019

d. Graph the line found in (b) and label at least 3 points.
