In 2005, it took 18.43 currency units to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918. In 1990, it took only 13.20 currency units to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918. The amount it takes to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918 can be estimated by the linear function V given by V(x) 0.3592x + 13.7589, where x is the number of years since 1990.

Question

When will it take approximately 40 currency units to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918?

In 2005, it took 18.43 currency units to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918. In 1990, it took only 13.20 currency
units to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918. The amount it takes to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918
can be estimated by the linear function V given by V(x) 0.3592x + 13.7589, where x is the number of years since
1990. Thus, V(11) gives the amount it took in 2001 to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918. Complete parts (a)
and (b) below.
a) Use this function to predict the amount it will take in 2009 and in 2017 to equal the value of 1 currency unit in 1918
