a) Answers may vary. A sample solution is shown.<br />

Yes, a quadratic curve of best fit could be drawn through the points since the points are<br />

nearly the shape of a quadratic.<br />

b) Answers may vary. A sample solution is shown.<br />

Yes, an exponential curve of best fit could be drawn through the points since they follow the<br />

shape of an exponential equation.<br />

c) Answers may vary. A sample solution is shown.<br />

c)<br />

y &= 0.17x 2 – 5.34x + 97.93<br />

y &= 95.67(0.96) x<br />

d) Answers may vary. A sample solution is shown.<br />

The exponential model is better for predicting values for x > 15.74. The quadratic model<br />

gives increasing values, which is not realistic.<br />
