Answer to Problem 3CYU
The median age of females will be 27 years.
Explanation of Solution
Given: The given data between the number of years and median age of females when they are first married is shown as
Number of years | Median age of females |
1996 | 24.8 |
1997 | 25.0 |

e.
Can the equation of fit give the reasonable estimate for the year 2056? Explain.
e.
Answer to Problem 3CYU
Yes, the equation gives the reasonable estimate for the year 2056 because for the year 2056 the estimated age is 31.4 years.
Explanation of Solution
Given: The given data between the number of years and median age of females when they are first married is shown as
Number of years | Median age of females |
1996 | 24.8 |
1997 | 25.0 |
1998 | 25.0 |
1999 | 25.1 |
2000 | 25.1 |
2001 | 25.1 |
2002 | 25.3 |
2003 | 25.3 |
2005 | 25.5 |
2006 | 25.9 |
Calculation: The median age of females in 2056 can be evaluated by plugging
Hence, the equation of fit gives a reasonable estimate for the year 2056 because in the year 2056 the predicted age of women comes 31.4 years.
