If we graph all of the equations and plot all of the points from the table, equation B is the closest match.

asked 03/06/21The table shows the number of a particular brand of luxury cars sold in various years. Use a calculator to write a quartic model for the number of cars sold in a given year since 2000 and use the model to estimate the number of cars sold in 2005.
A.) P(x) ≈ −38.23x3 + 56.86x2 + 1098.23x + 557.48
The estimated number of cars sold in 2005 is 2,691.
B.) P(x) ≈ 6.04x4 − 135.32x3 + 698.78x2 − 228.48x + 247.95
The estimated number of cars sold in 2005 is 3,432.
C.) P(x) ≈ 6.04x4 − 111.18x3 + 329.04x2 + 787.26x + 588.97
The estimated number of cars sold in 2005 is 2,626.
D.) P(x) ≈ −38.23x3 + 56.86x2 + 1098.23x + 557.48
The estimated number of cars sold in 2005 is 3,413.
