Textbook Question
Chapter 8, Problem 32P
The relationship between two variables y and x is known to be:
The following data points are given:
x | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 | 50 |
y | 15 | 25 | 32 | 33 | 37 | 35 | 38 | 39 | 41 | 42 |
Determine the constants a and b by curve-fitting the equation to the data points. Make a plot of y versus x. In the plot show the data points with markers and the curve-fitted equation with a solid line. Use the equation to estimate y at x =23. (The curve fitting can be done by writing the reciprocal of the equation and using a first-order polynomial.)
