What is the exponential function that best models the number of gnats the scientists have

Mathematics

IrinaVladis [17]1 year ago

Answer:

  (b)  f(x) = 12.5(1.6^x)

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential model is generally of the form ...

  f(x) = a·b^x

where 'a' is the initial value (for x=0), and 'b' is the growth factor, the multiplier when x increases by 1.

<h3>Growth factor</h3>

The ratio of the f(x) values for x=0 and x=1 is 20/12 ≈ 1.67. A number close to this will be the growth factor in the exponential function. There is only one answer choice showing a growth factor near 1.6. (Eliminates choices A, C, D.)

An exponential regression model can be produced by many graphing calculators and spreadsheets. The attachment shows a model that has the values matching choice B.

The lsrl after an exponential transformation is log yhat=.4785 + 1.468x. What is the exponential form of the regression?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

10^{0.4785+1.468x}=y

Step-by-step explanation:

So I'm assuming when you typed "log yhat=.4785 + 1.468x", you meant to write: log(y)=0.4785+1.468x. And generally a logarithm can be written in the form log_ba=c which can then be rewritten as b^c=a, but since the log has no base, it's assumed to be 10. So in this case you have the equation:

log_{10}y=0.4785+1.468x, which can then be written in exponential form as:

10^{0.4785+1.468x}=y
