Curve Fitting with Quadratic Models
For a set of ordered pairs with equally spaced xvalues, a quadratic function has constant
nonzero second differences, as shown below.

Example 3: Consumer Application
The table shows the cost of circular plastic
wading pools based on the pool’s diameter.
Find a quadratic model for the cost of the pool,
given its diameter. Use the model to estimate
the cost of the pool with a diameter of 8 ft.

Example 3 Continued
A quadratic model is f(x) ≈ 2.4x2 – 21.6x + 67.6,
where x is the diameter in feet and f(x) is the
cost in dollars. For a diameter of 8 ft, the model
estimates a cost of about $49.54.

The table below lists the total estimated numbers of AIDS cases, by year
of diagnosis from 1999 to 2003 in the United States (Source: US Dept. of
Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
HIV/AIDS Surveillance, 2003.)
Use the model to predict the number of AIDS cases in the year 2006.

Example 3 Continued
Step 1 Enter the data
into two lists in a
graphing calculator.
Let the year 1998
represent t = 0.
We let 1998 be when t = 0 because it allows
for a more accurate approximation of the
quadratic function. The quadratic
regression’s coefficients of a, b, and c will be
more accurate when there isn’t 2000 units
separating the y-axis and the first data point.

A quadratic model is
f(t) ≈ 345.143t2 – 1705.657t + 42903, where x is the
number of years after 1998 and f(t) is the amount of
AIDS cases. For the year 2006, the model estimates
the number of AIDS cases to be 51,347.
