The graph of the model is (c) and the equation of the model is (d) y = 1.030 * 3.709^x
How to determine the regression equation?
From the table of values, we can see that:
As the time increases, the distance increases
However, the increment in the distance is not a linear increment.
This means that:
- The graph cannot be (a) and (d); these graphs show scattered points
- The graph cannot be (c); it shows that distance decreases, as time increases
The graph (b) represents an exponential model.
When the points on the table are entered in a graphing calculator, we have the regression equation to be
y = 1.030 * 3.709^x
Hence, the graph of the model is (c) and the equation of the model is (d) y = 1.030 * 3.709^x
