Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the graph

The graph shows the number of people applying for passports increasing from 14 (thousand) in 2004, 16 in 2005, 18 in 2006, and 20 in 2007. This represents a steady increase of 2 (thousand) people per year.

Step 2: Determine the best model

Since the number of people increases at a constant rate, a linear function is the best model.
