# The table shows world average daily oil consumption from 1985 to 2010 measured in thousands of barrels per day.(a) Make a scatter plot and decide whether a linear model is appropriate.(b) Find and graph the regression line.(c) Use the linear model to estimate the oil consumption in 2002 and 2012.

## (a) See the scatter plot in part (b). A linear model seems appropriate.(b) Using a computing device, we obtain the regression line$y=1116.64 x+60,188.33$(c) For $2002, x=17$ and $y \approx 79,171$ thousands of barrels per day.For $2012, x=27$ and $y \approx 90,338$ thousands of barrels per day.
