Solve the problem.The following table shows the median number of hours of leisure time per week for Americans in various years.
Let f(t) be the median number of hours of leisure time at t years since 1993. Use a graphing calculator to plot a scatterplot to describe the data. Using the same viewing window, draw the graph of the quadratic model
Use the model to estimate when the median number of hours of leisure time was the lowest.
What will be an ideal response?
The median number of hours of leisure time was the lowest in 2008.
