The Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act (RRA) was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1998. A major objective of the RRA was to promote electronic filing of tax returns. The data in the table that follows show the percentage of individual income tax returns filed electronically for filing years 2000–2008. Since the percentage P of returns filed electronically depends on the filing year y and each input corresponds to exactly one output, the percentage of returns filed electronically is a function of the filing year;so P(y) represents the percentage of returns filed electronically for filing year y.
(a) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2000 to 2002.
(b) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2004 to 2006.
(c) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2006 to 2008.
(d) What is happening to the average rate of change as time passes?
In Problems 27–34, determine whether the given function is linear, exponential, or neither. For those that are linear functions, find a linearfunction that models the data; for those that are exponential, find an exponential function that models the data.
Q1. The table provided gives data on indexes of output per hour (X) and real compensation per hour (Y) for the business and nonfarm business sectors of the U.S. economy for 1960–2005. The base year of the indexes is 1992 = 100 and the indexes are seasonally adjusted.
a. Plot Y against X for the two sectors separately.
b. What is the economic theory behind the relationship between the two variables? Does the scattergram support the theory?
c. Estimate the OLS regression of Y on X.
Note: on the table ( 1. Output refers to real gross domestic product in the sector. 2. Wages and salaries of employees plus employers’ contributions for social insurance and private benefit plans. 3. Hourly compensation divided by the consumer price index for all urban consumers for recent quarters.)

- +. A nuclear power facility produces a vast amount of heat, which is usually discharged into aquatic systems. This heat raises the temperature of the aquatic system, resulting in a greater concentration of chlorophyll a, which in turn extends the growing season. To study this effect, water samples were collected monthly at 3 stations for a period of 12 months. Station A is located closest to a potential heated water discharge, station C is located farthest away from the discharge, and station B is located halfway between stations A and C. The following concentrations of chlorophyll a were recorded.
