- A real estate agent has developed a linear model for the price of a house, P, in dollars in terms of the area, A, in square feet for the homes in a certain neighborhood. The data set had areas ranging from 1,000 square feet to 4,500 square feet. Would predicting the prices of a home that is 4,900 square feet be interpolation or extrapolation? Explain. Using the model to predict the price of a 4,900 square foot home is extrapolation because 4,900 square feet is outside the range of the areas in the data. Using the model to predict the price of a 4,900 square foot home is interpolation because 4,900 square feet is inside the range of the areas in the data.

One general belief held by observers of the business world is that taller men earn more money than shorter men.
