Answer

a) $G(10)=69$ b) underestimated by $2$ percents

Work Step by Step

using the formula of $G(x)=-0.01x^2+x+60$ a. $G(10)=69$ b.it underestimates the data shown in the bar graph by $2$ percent Use the formula of $$G(x)=-0.01x^2+x+60$$ a) Calculate: $$G(10)=-0.01(10^2)+10+60=69$$ b) Because $69<71$, it means that $G(10)$ underestimates the data shown in the bar graph by $71-69=2$ percents.
