The average annual number of cigarettes smoked by an adult in some country continues to decline. For the years 2000-2012 the equation y=-77.8x+2051 approximates this data. Here, x is the number of years after 2000, and y is the average annual number of cigarettes smoked. If this trend continues, find the year in which the average annual number of cigarettes smoked reaches zero. To do this, substitute 0 for y in the equation and solve for x.
