Textbook Question
Chapter 2.2, Problem 62E
Health The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics tracks the major causes of death in the United States. After a steady increase, the death rate by cancer has decreased since the early 1990s. The table lists the age-adjusted death rate per 100,000 people for 4 years. Source: The New York Times 2010 Almanac and National Vital Statistics Reports.
Year | Rate |
1980 | 183.9 |
1990 | 203.3 |
2000 | 196.5 |
2010 | 186.2 |
- (a) If the relationship between the death rate R and the year t is expressed as R = at2 + bt + c, where t = 0 corresponds to 1980, use data from 1980, 1990, and 2000 and a linear system of equations to determine the constants a, b, and c.
- (b) Use the equation from part (a) to predict the rate in 2010, and compare the result with the actual data.
- (c) If the relationship between the death rate R and the year t is expressed as R = at3 + bt2 + ct + d, where t = 0 corresponds to 1980, use all four data points and a linear system of equations to determine the constants a, b, c, and d.
- (d) Discuss the appropriateness of the functions used in parts (a) and (c) to model this data.
