(a) Describe the behavior suggested by a scatter plot of the data and list the types of models that exhibit this behavior.
A scatter plot of the data is ---Select---
and appears to have an inflection point near x = 24. The scatter plot is concave
: to the left of x = 24 and
---Select---
---Select--- function.
to the right of x = 24. This behavior suggests a
concave ---Select---
(b) Describe the possible end behavior as input increases and list the types of models that would fit each possibility.
O Production should decrease without bound as capital expenditure increases. A cubic, quadratic, logarithmic, or exponential model would fit this possibility.
O Production should continue to increase without bound as capital expenditure increases. A cubic, quadratic, logarithmic, or exponential model would fit this possibility.
O Production should continue to increase to a limiting value as capital expenditure increases. A logistic model would fit this possibility.
Production should approach 0 as capital expenditure increases. A logistic model would fit this possibility.
(c) Write the function of the model that best fits the data of the production level in billion units, where x million dollars is invested in capital, with data from 6 sx S 48. (Round
all numerical values to four decimal places.)
