Given information : The question is
The reciprocal of near point is
Calculation :
For the point
To create : a table by using graphing utility
Explanation of Solution
Given information : The table provided in the question given below
Calculation :
Age, | Near point, | Model |
16 | 3.0 | 3.07 |
32 | 4.7 | 4.81 |
44 | 9.8 | 8.41 |
50 | 19.7 | 13.42 |
60 | 39.4 | 2000 |
The model has vertical asymptote near
To predict : the near point for a person who is
Explanation of Solution
Given information : The question is
The reciprocal of near point is
Calculation :
This is saying that the near point is behind the person, which does not make sense, so the model can not be used
