The number of newly reported crime cases in a county in New York State is shown in the accompanying table, where x represents the number of years since 1994, and y represents number of new cases. Write the linear regression equation that represents this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest hundredth. Using this equation, find the projected number of new cases for 2003, rounded to the nearest whole number.
