Concept explainers
An investigator has reported the data tabulated below. It is known that such data can be modeled by the following equation
where a and b are parameters. Use a transformation to linearize this equation and then employ linear regression to determine a and b. Based on your analysis predict y at
x | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
y | 0.5 | 2 | 2.9 | 3.5 | 4 |
