Working at Home The number of persons working out of their homes has been increasing rapidly in recent years. Figure 6.6 illustrates data gathered in a study reped ing the aber of persons working at bome 35 or more hours per week. The data appeen to be simos quadratic in appearance. Using the date for 1986 and 1988 and the projectad value for 1090, determine the quadratic estimating function -f(0, where nequals the number of persons working 35 ur mors hours per week at home (stated in thousand) and tequals time measured in years since 1986. According to this function, what is the number of persons working at home expected to equal in 1995? In 20007
