Question
The distribution of incomes as of 2012 in the United States in $5000 increments is given in the following table. The kth row denotes the percentage of households with incomes between $5000xk and 5000xk + 4999. The row k = 40 contains all households with income between $200,000 and $250,000 and k = 41 accounts for all households with income exceeding $250,000.
(a) Estimate the percentage of U.S. households in 2012 with incomes less than $55,000.
(b) What percentage of households had incomes exceeding $85,000?
(c) Plot the data and try to fit its shape to that of a graph of the form \(a(x+c) e^{-b(x+e)}\) for suitable a, b, c.
