Chapter 3.5, Problem 17E

The data in the following table give the population of the United States for the years 1960 to 2010 and were considered in Exercise 16 of Section 3.2 and Exercise 6 of Section 3.3.

 Year  1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010  Population (thousands)  179 , 323 203 , 302 226 , 542 249 , 633 281 , 442 307 , 746

  1. Find a natural cubic spline agrecing with these data, and use the spline to predict the population in the years 1950,1975, and 2020
  2. Compare your approximations with those previously obtained. If you had to make a choice. which interpolation procedure would you choose?
