Question

units of measurement assessment 2025x
a student used the graph to determine that the volume of a sample should be 550 ml when the mass is 550 g. was this point determined by extrapolation or interpolation?
interpolation
extrapolation
both
neither

Explanation:

Interpolation is estimating a value within the range of known data points. Extrapolation is estimating a value outside the range of known data points. The graph has mass values up to 500 g, and 550 g is outside this range. So, determining the volume at 550 g mass is extrapolation.

Answer:

Extrapolation
