Marriage Prospects Data released by the Census Bureau in 1986 indicated the likelihood that never-married women would eventually marry. The data indicated that the older the woman, the less the likelihood of marriage. Specifically, two statistics indicated that women who were 45 and never-married had an 18 percent chance of marriage and women 25 years old had a 78 percent chance of marriage. Assume that a linear fit to these two data points provides a reasonable approximation for the function p=f(a), where p equals the probability of marriage and a equals the age of a never- married woman. (a) Determine the linear function p=f(a). (b) Interpret the slope and p intercept. (c) Do the values in part b seem reasonable? (d) If the restricted domain on this function is 20 sa s 50, determine f(20), f(30), f(40), and f(50).
