Explanation:

<u>Linear trend</u>

A linear trend is one that is best approximated by a straight line. Sometimes we use a straight-line approximation, even when it may not be a very good fit, because we are only interested in the sign of the slope, or its approximate magnitude. The parameters of a linear trend are about the easiest to calculate (though it doesn't matter much if an appropriate tool is used).

__

<u>Non-linear trend</u>

A non-linear trend is one that is best approximated by a curve other than a straight line. Trig functions (sine, cosine), exponential functions, quadratic functions are often used. Non-linear trends are not restricted to these kinds of functions.

Maria’s family hosts a barbeque every month in the summer. In May, they bought 3.2 pounds of hamburger and 3 packages of hot dog
Sindrei [870]
Given:

May:
hamburger: 3.2 pounds * 4.25 = 13.60
hotdogs:     3 packages * 4      = 12
Total cost: 13.60 + 12 = 25.60

June:
hamburger: 3.2 pounds * 1 1/2 = 4.8 pounds * 4.25 = 20.4
hotdogs:      3 packages * 1/3    = 1 package * 4        =   4
Total cost: 20.4 + 4 = 24.4

25.60 - 24.40 = 1.20

They spent more on May by $1.20. Choice C.
