(Modeling) Adjusted Poverty Threshold The adjusted poverty threshold for a single person between the years 1997 and 2003 can be approximated by the polynomial

5.476x2 + 154.3x + 7889,

where x = 0 corresponds to 1997, x = 1 corresponds to 1998, and so on, and the amount is in dollars. According to this model, what was the adjusted poverty threshold in each given year? (Source: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.)
