Answer:

2305

Step-by-step explanation:

The year 2015 is 20 years past the year 1995.  Therefore, we take the number of years past 1995 to be x, where x starts at 0 and increases for, say, 20 years or so (the domain is not infinite).

Then, the number of home in the town in 2015 is likely to be in the range

y = 84(20) + 625 = 2305
