Question

by visual inspection, determine the best - fitting regression model for the data plot below. a. linear increasing b. no pattern c. exponential d. linear decreasing

Explanation:

A linear increasing model would show points rising steadily. A linear decreasing model would show a straight - line downward trend. A no - pattern model would have randomly scattered points. An exponential model shows a rapid change (either growth or decay). In the given data plot, the points follow a curve that is characteristic of an exponential decay (a type of exponential model).

Answer:

C. Exponential
