  1. Connect the dots to make a LINE GRAPH.
        

  2. From 1900 to the year 2000, has California's population increased or decreased?
      

  3. During the year 1970, what was California's population?
      

  4. Assuming the extrapolation the data from 1990 to 2000 is accurate, from 1960 to the year 2000, will California's population double or triple?
      

  5. What will be the population in California in the year 2040, if its population growth continues at the rate shown in the graph above?  How did you figure out the answer?
