Finding a Quadratic Model in Standard FormFinding an Equation of a Quadratic Model
ExampleThe numbers of house calls paid by Medicare are shown in the table for various years.
Let f (t) be the number of house calls (in millions) paid by Medicare in the year that is t years since 1995. Find an equation of a model to describe the situation.

ExampleThe number of federal documents that are classified has been increasing; so has the cost of keeping these documents secret (see the table).
Let c be the federal cost of secrecy (in billions of dollars) in the year that is t years since 1990. Find the equation of a model to describe the situation

Determining Which Type of Model to UseSelecting a Model
ProcessWhen performing step 1 of the modeling process, we must decide whether a linear function, an exponential function, a quadratic function, or none of these is suitable for modeling the situation. Here are the criteria for selecting a model:
• The graph of the model should fit the points well.
• The model should make sense within the context of the authentic situation.

Determining Which Type of Model to UseFour-Step Process
ProcessTo find a model and make estimates and predictions,
1. Create a scattergram of the data. Decide whether a line, an exponential curve, a parabola, or none of these comes close to the points.
2. Find an equation of your model.

Determining Which Type of Model to UseFour-Step Process
Process Continued3. Verify that your equation has a graph that comes
close to the points in the scattergram. If it doesn’t, check for calculation errors or use different points to find the equation. An alternative is to reconsider your choice of model in step 1.
4. Use your equation of the model to draw conclusions, make estimates, and/or make predictions.
