It has been estimated that a certain stream can support 91,000 fish if it is pollution-free. It has further been estimated that for each ton of pollutants in the stream, 1100 fewer fish can be supported. Assuming the relationship is linear, write the equation that gives the population of fish p in terms of the tons of pollutants x.

          It has been estimated that a certain stream can support 91,000
fish if it is pollution-free. It has further been estimated that
for each ton of pollutants in the stream, 1100 fewer fish can be
supported. Assuming the relationship is linear, write the equation
that gives the population of fish p in terms of the tons of
pollutants x.
