Answer 1

The visitor data is best modeled by a quadratic function, and the state park management should plan for more than 400 visitors next year.

How to determine the model of the function?

To do this, we simply plot the points on a graph.

See attachment for the graph that represents the table.

From the attached graph, we can see that the points on the graph follows an approximately quadratic path

Hence, the visitor data is best modeled by a quadratic function

Also, the state park management should plan for more than 400 visitors next year.

This is so because the range of a quadratic function is the set of all real numbers.

This means that the table can accept a value of 400 (or greater) as one of its data points
