Answers to the Extended Problems are below in random order.
The most recent data best predicts the future rather than the data dating back to 1800.
By deleting the outliers, the equations are a better fit of the predicted data.
Answers vary. Explain which data set you used, why the question you picked is the best fit and which points they excluded. This question is open-ended and the important piece is the justification of choices.
The predicted data points are steeper than the linear, quadratic and exponential models, but the quadratic looks the closest to the predicted data set.
The equations don't match the predicted incomes for future years because they are factoring in years like the great depression. These points are outliers that affect the equations.
Answers vary. The important part of this question is the explanation justifying your reasoning.
The quadratic function best fits the data because it has the strongest correlation coefficient.
