Question

when using a line to model a situation, do we usually have more faith in a result obtained by interpolation or extrapolation? explain. fill in the blanks to complete the sentence. interpolation, because dropdown beyond the data points which the model is describing. the dropdown options are: the model may not hold, values are easier to estimate

Explanation:

Interpolation involves estimating within the range of known data points, while extrapolation is estimating beyond those points. Extrapolation assumes the model holds outside the data range, but the model may not hold there. So the correct phrase to fill is "the model may not hold" as extrapolation goes beyond data points where the model's validity is uncertain.

Answer:

the model may not hold
