Question

select the correct choice that completes the sentence below. for a situation that can be described by a model whose explanatory variable is t, we perform when we use a part of the model whose t-coordinates are not between the t-coordinates of dropdown options: interpolation, extrapolation, model breakdown, linear association

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the definitions:

• Interpolation: Using a model for t - coordinates between the given data's t - coordinates.
• Extrapolation: Using a model for t - coordinates outside (not between) the given data's t - coordinates.
• Model breakdown: When the model fails to describe the situation.
• Linear association: A relationship between two variables with a linear pattern.

The question states we use the model for t - coordinates not between the given ones, so this is extrapolation.

Answer:

extrapolation
