Do you think that extrapolation or interpolation is more accurate? Explain.

Answer:

Interpolation is used to predict values that exist within a data set, and extrapolation is used to predict values that fall outside of a data set and use known values to predict unknown values. Often, interpolation is more reliable than extrapolation, but both types of prediction can be valuable for different purposes
