The linear equation used to represent this situation is y = -75x + 6000

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b;

where y, x are variable, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

Let y represent the amount of deer present in x years. There are 6000 deer presently, hence a = 6000. Also 75 more deer die than are born each year. Hence m = -75.

The linear equation is given by:

y = -75x + 6000

In 3 years:

y = -75(3) + 6000

y = 5775

For there to be 5325 deer:

5325 = -75x + 6000

x = 9 years
