Question

According to the model, how many marriage licenses were issued in 2006? Round your answer to the nearest hundred.

Answer 1

C. 124,900

Explanation:

We have that the following function is the one that models the situation:

`y=3.4905\left(x\right)^2-17674\left(x\right)+21533000`

We evaluate when x = 2006, like this

`\begin{gathered} y=3.4905\left(2006\right)^2-17674\left(2006\right)+21533000 \\ \\ y=4024036\cdot\:3.4905-35454044+21533000 \\ \\ y=14045897.658-13921044 \\ \\ y=124853.658\cong124900 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the correct answer is C. 124,900
