Concept explainers
Tofind: A function that models the given data.
Answer to Problem 32E
We choose the model using exponential regression initially injected
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
Table shows amount,
Concept used:
Use data pairs to determine type of function.
Linear function: - The difference of consecutive y-values is constant.
Exponential function: - Consecutive y-values have a common ratio. In each case, the differences of consecutive x-values need to be constant.
We are given the function:
We determine a function which models the data using graphing calculator:
We choose the model using exponential regression.
We determine the amount of venom initially injected into the animal’s body by computing
Hence,
We choose the model using exponential regression initially injected
