Two occupations predicted to greatly increase in number of jobs are pharmacy technicians and network systems and data communication analysts. The number of pharmacy technician jobs predicted for through 2014 can be approximated by 7.4x-y=-254 The number of network and data analyst jobs for the same years can be approximated by 12.2x-y=-231 For both equations, x is the number of years since and y is the number of jobs in thousands.
Solution rounded to the nearest whole number is (ordered pair)
B. Use your result from part (a) and estimate the year in which the number of both jobs is equal. Remember that for both equations, x is the number of years since 2003
