Answer 2

Given:

The data in the table represent the height of an object over time.

A 2-column table with 5 rows.

The first column is labeled time (seconds) with entries 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. The second column is labeled height (feet) with entries 5, 50, 70, 48, 4.

To Find:

Which model best represents the data?

Solution:

Here we can use curve fitting technique.

• We can see initially the curve is increasing and it then decreases.
• We can see that the best curve that will fit this data is a parabola.
• We can use a second order curve fitting.

Hence the best model that represents the data is second order equation.
