Question

Data were collected from libraries about the number of patrons who have overdue books and how long they have been using the library.


Years Using Library 1 1 1.5 3 3.5 5 7 10
Number of Overdue Books 8 5 7 3 3 1 1 2
The equation ŷ = 6(0.83)x is a model that fits the data. Which of the following uses the model correctly and is an example of extrapolation?
A patron who has been using the library for 2 years is predicted to have more than 24 overdue books.
A patron who has been using the library for 11 years is predicted to have less than 1 overdue book.
A patron who has been using the library for 2 years is predicted to have between 3 and 4 overdue books.
A patron who has been using the library for 11 years is predicted to have between 4 and 5 overdue books.
