Hi Sajadd! May I ask why is the answer from 1985 to 1990 instead of none since 1965's number of death per drink drive is actually below the trendline?

If the actual number of deaths per year were higher than the trend line would predict, the point for that year would fall above the trend line. There are two time periods in which the points fall above the trend line, but only one of these, 1985 to 1990, is an answer choice.

May I know why the answer is not 777 ? If you observe the graph more closely, the difference between deaths is more than 7k.

For 777, we need a total of 7770 deaths. Even if you go deeper, it maxes out at 7200, and if we have to round off 720, we will go to 700, not 777. Hence, the answer is 700.

Thank you!
