from the early 1970's through 2001, the rate of obesity in young american children , ages 6 to 11, has shown a linear increase. in 1988, approximately 11.3% of 6 - 11 year old american children were obese. by 2003, the rate of obese americans had risen to 14% .
a. write a linear model that would model these data where time in years after 1988 and r is the rate of obesity as a percentage .
b. use this model to predict the 2014 obesity rate among 6 - 11 year old american children
