I need help quick! :( The graph shows how the value of an antique changes over several years. Which is the best conjecture for the antique's value in 2020? A. $600 B. $480 C. $670 D. $430 http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/328500_329000/328821/1/7fce1f28016d78d4fc8884a444879195426628c9/MS_ALG_S2_07_04_quiz_Q5.gif

a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've done the mean of all the different values and it's 561, so I wan't sure what to do..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont get it though like what does it want to know ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe do the mean without that weird second point? also i'm guessing here, but I think @Gravity_Dreams is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It says "The graph shows how the value of an antique changes over several years. Which is the best conjecture for the antique's value in 2020?"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok

In your previous question, A was the correct answer: this is more of a pattern analysis than anything notice that per every 10 years, the price maintains its pattern of decreasing/increasing at the end of 2010, it is completing a downfall come 2020, given the previous years trends, one might expect it to go back up to around it's max average, which is about 600.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll wait on Miacrown before I close

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I knew it! Thanks!

|dw:1403089066182:dw| we can also consider our other choices 480 670 and 430 the two on bottom 430 and 480 don't comply with the upward trend that would be expected to occur by upward trend, i mean increase in price during this 10 year span and the 670 choice is an increase yet it is somewhat unrealistically high considering that the max price point is relatively consistent around this 600 figure.
