What kind of trend, and relationship is this graph? [closed]












1














I need some help with labeling the trend of this graph, and also deciding what the relationship is between the two variables (X,Y).
Here is a picture of it:

Using Excels trend-line option it seems to fit either a exponential or moving average trend-line, and also to me seems like it has a horizontal asymptote. Can anyone help me with this? I am also looking at figuring out the relationship between the two variables, seeing i'm only familiar with linear relationship i have no clue.

    This looks exponential, the vertical axis quantity roughly halves every increase of two units along the horizontal axis.

  • Note that a "moving average" isn't a type of function exactly, rather it just refers to a function $hat{f(t)}$ given by averaging another function $f(t)$ over some interval in $t$, sometimes with some kind of weighting.

Desmos confirms the result that you and Claude reached; your set of data is almost perfectly modeled by the function $$y=1081.6x^2$$ I tried a few other kinds of fits (exponential, higher-order polynomial, etc.), and none worked as well as the above equation, so I think that one should work pretty well for you.

            Quarter-circle Tiles

            Image
            up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form? I think this problem has to do with finding the chance any given 2x2 square has a circle, but I can't find it. expected-value share | cite | improve this question asked Nov 20 at 15:03 6minecraftninja 1 2

            build a pushdown automaton that recognizes the reverse language of a given pushdown automaton?

            Image
            0 I think it's similiar to NFAs. I replace the finite states of the given automaton for start-states for my new automaton. I do it with $epsilon$ -transition from the start state to the actual finite states of the given automaton. The start state of the given automaton will be my accepting(finite) state of my new one. All transitions will be reversed of course to recognize the reversed word. But how do I have to change the stack of the pushdown automaton? That's tricky. formal-languages automata context-free-grammar share | cite | improve this question edited Nov 29 '18 at 14:20 joee
