Based on data from 1980 through 2006, the number of deaths (per 100,000 population) due to suicide in the 15- to 24-year-old age range can be approximated by the equation

y = –0.08x + 15.4

where x = the number of years since 1980 (x = 0 for 1980) and y = number of suicides per 100,000 population. Based on this equation, find the approximate suicide rate for

(a) 2000

(b) 2015

(c) 2025
