Answer to Problem 74RE
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The following data represent the distances
Using a graphing utility, find the power function of best fit.
Calculation: Use a best fit function on a graphing utility to find the quadratic function the best fits the data in the table.
On a graphing utility, enter the data points found in the table by hitting STAT, 1: Edit, and then entering the
Hence, the power function that fits the data in the table the best is
