We have been given that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 39.7 pounds, and in 1989 it was 47 pounds.
Let us assume t=0 corresponds to year 1980.
Hence, we can express the given information as ordered pairs as (3,39.7) and (9,47).
We can to find a linear function passing through these points. Let us first find slope of the linear function:
We can write the required linear function as:
Upon simplifying this, we get:
In order to find per capita consumption in 1995, we need to substitute t=15 in this function.
Therefore, we would expect the per capita consumption of chicken in 1995 to be 54.3.
<em>Coplanar</em> means "lying on the same plane," while <em>colinear </em>means "lying on the same line." In this problem, all four points A, B, C, and D are coplanar - they all lie on the plane - so we just need to find the points that lie on the same line. Though points C and B <em>would </em>be colinear if there was a line drawn between them, there's no such line in this problem, so we can rule that out. We notice one line drawn on the plane, and points A, C, and D lying on it, so we can say that points A, C, and D are both coplanar and colinear.
