Chapter 12.2, Problem 51E

To determine

To find: the correct option of the following option.

Answer to Problem 51E

A plot of $\log y$ against $\log x$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  $y=2.7{\left(0.316\right)}^x$

This equation shows an exponential function that is not linear and therefore the scatter plot would be a straight line.

If taking the logarithm of both sides of the equation:

This is a linear equation with variables log y and x and therefore the scatter plot would be a straight line in this case.

Hence, the correct option is (c)
