Answer:
<u>D. The range of the data set is 18.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the variability of the data.
That means it refers to the range of the data.
It shows how variable the data points in a set are.
<u>Option D</u> is the best answer.
The first thing you should do for this case is to use the following table to perform the equation of a line:
y x
41,431 1995
48,729 2005
We have then that the line that best fits this data is
y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
Then, to know in what year the number of shopping centers reaches 80,000 we must replace this number in the equation of the line and clear x:
80000 = 729.8x - 1E + 06
Clearing x
x = (80000 + 1E + 06) / (729.8) = 1479.857495
nearest whole number
1480
This means that after 1480 years, 80000 shopping centers are reached.
Equivalently, this amount is reached in the year:
1480 + 1995 = 3475
In the year 3475
answer
(a) y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
(b) In the year 3475
