In problem involving days, a 365-day year is assumed.

Egg consumption. Using quadratic regression on a graphing calculator, show that the quadratic function that best fits the data on egg consumption in Problem 90 is

(coefficients rounded to three significant digits).

Reference: Problem 90:

In problem involving days, a 365-day year is assumed.

Egg consumption. The table shows the annual per capita consumption of eggs in the United States.

A mathematical model for this data is given by

where x = 0 corresponds to 1980.

(A) Complete the following table.

(B) Graph y = f (x) and the data in the same coordinate system.

(C) Use the modeling function f to estimate the per capita egg consumption in 2012.

(D) Based on the information in the table, write a brief description of egg consumption from 1980 to 2005.
