Short Answer

Following are some approximate values of the Amex Gold BUGS Index. Year 2003 2004 2006 Index 100 250 300 Take to be the year since 2003 and to be the BUGS index.
(a)Model the 2003 and 2004 data with a linear equation. y = __________

(B)Model the 2004 and 2006 data with a linear equation. y = __________

(c)Use the results of parts (a)and
(B)to obtain a piecewise linear model of the gold BUGS index for 2003-2006.
(D)Use your model to estimate the index in 2005. y = __________
