Step 1
The given model is Number of students =0.0112x2+0.4663x+1.513
Using this model, we can approximate the number of students (in millions) taking at least one online college course between the period 2002 and 2012.
Here, x=0 corresponds 2002
x=1 corresponds 2003.
So, x=12 corresponds 2012.
So, substituting x=12 in the given model, we get the approximate number of students (in millions) who took at least one online college course in 2012.
So, Number of students in 2012=0.0112(10)2+0.4663(10)+1.513
=0.0112(100)+4.663+1.513
=7.296 millions
Therefore, 7.296 million students took at least one online college course in 2012.
