After plotting the points on a coordinate plane, connect them to see the type of curve that best fits them.
Graph:
Model: Exponential
Practice makes perfect
We want to determine the most appropriate model for the given data set.
(- 3,8), (- 2, 4), (-1,2), (0,1), (1,0.5)
To do so we will plot and connect the given points on a coordinate plane. Then we can see the type of curve that best fits.
We see that the curve that best fits the points is a exponential curve. Therefore, the most appropriate model for the data set is a exponential model.
