As Earth's population continues to grow, the solid waste generated by the population grows with it. Governments must plan for disposal and recycling of ever growing amounts of solid waste. Planners can use data from the past to predict future waste generation and plan for enough facilities for disposing of and recycling the waste

Given the following data on the waste data generated in Lusaka from 1990 - 1994

Year.Ton of solid waste Generation.

1990 19,358

1991 19,484

1992 20,293

1993 21,499

1994 23,561

Make a scatterplot of the data on graph paper and draw a linear line that best fits the data and use this line to predict the average tons of waste in 2000 and 2005
