The percentage y of U.S. households owning Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAS) in year x is approximated by the equation 0.076(x-2000) = 15y- 5.16. Assuming this equation remains valid, use a calculator to determine in which year 40% of households will own an IRA. (Data from: ProQuest Statistical Abstract of the United States: 2013.)
