Step-by-step explanation:

$a_1=-24\\a_2=-24+10=-14\\a_3=-14+10=-4\\a_4=-4+10=6\\\\\text{Add the common difference d = 10 to the previous term.}\\\\a_5=a_4+10\to a_5=6+10=16\\a_6=a_5+10\to a_6=16+10=26\\a_7=a_6+10\to a_7=26+10=36\\\vdots$

storchak [24]

Answer:

a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
