example 2 U.S. Foreign-Born Population

Chapter 6.1

The table gives the percents of U.S. population that were foreign born for the years1900–2005.

a. Graph the data points and this function on the same axes, using the window [0, 110] by [0, 16].

b. Use the model and technology to find the approximate percent of the U.S. population that was foreign born in 1954.

c. Interpret the y-intercept of the graph of this function.

d. Find the local maximum and the local minimum. What do these two points on the graph indicate?

e. Over what interval is the function (and thus the percent) decreasing? What does this mean?
