example 6 Female Workers The percent of all workers who are female during selected years from 1970 to 2006 is given in the table. Year 1970 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2006 Percent of Workers Who Are Female 30.0 31.9 35.3 37.9 37.2 40.3 41.2 41.3 41.5 Find a logarithmic function that models these data. Align the input to be the number of years after 1960. Graph the equation and the aligned data points. Comment on how the model fits the data. Assuming that the model is valid in 2010, use it to estimate the percent of female workers in 2010. Chapter 5.4 2009 PBLPathways
