Education The table shows the numbers (in thousands) of masters degrees conferred in the United States from 1995 to 2003. (Source: U.S. National Center for Education Statistics) (a) Use the regression feature of a graphing utility to find an arithmetic sequence for the data. Let n represent the year, with corresponding to 1995. (b) Use the sequence from part (a) to approximate the numbers of masters degrees conferred for the years 1995 to 2003. How well does the model fit the data? (c) Use the sequence to find the total number of masters degrees conferred over the period from 1995 to 2003. (d) Use the sequence to predict the total number of masters degrees conferred over the period from 2004 to 2014. Is your total reasonable? Explain.
