Bankruptcies The number of bankruptcies B filed in thousands x years after 2006 can be modeled by

y = B(x) = 66.25x + 160.

(a) Evaluate B(4), and interpret your result.

(b) Use the formula for B(x) to write an equation that gives the number of bankruptcies y filed in thousands during year x.

(c) Refer to part (b) and find y when x = 2010. Interpret your result.

(d) Use your equation in part (b) to determine the year when bankruptcies reached 293 thousand.
