Your job is to decide if the district is on track to reach their goal of 90% by 2030.
Start by creating the following:


1. An accurate and labeled graph of the district’s graduation rates over time, using the data from
the table above.
2. A list of the topics we’ve learned about in this course that would be helpful in solving this
problem.


Then use those to provide:


3. Predictions for the graduation rates for the next 5 years (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026). Show
your work and explain your approach.
4. A well supported conclusion. Is the district on track to reach its goal of a 90% graduation rate by
the year 2030? Why or why not?
