Question:

In the following data, V represents a mean walking velocity and P represents the population size.We wish to know if we can predict the population size P by observing how fast people walk. Plot the data. What kind of a relationship is suggested? Test the following models by plotting the appropriate transformed data.

a. P = aV. b
b. P = a ln V.

V 2.27 2.76 3.27 3.31 3.70 3.85 4.31 P 2500 365 23700 5491 14000 78200 70700 V 4.81 P 341948 4.90 49375 5.05
