1.1 Modeling Discrete Data: Quiz

Problem 2

Consider the curve

Which of the following points lie on the curve? Of the points that do not, which lies furthest (measured vertically) from the curve?

  1. (–1, –16)
  2. (–4, –13)
  3. (3, 2)
  4. (0, –1)
  5. (5, –6)

Answers, problem 2

  1. c(–1) = –6; Distance = 10
  2. c(–4) = –33; Distance = 20: this is the largest
  3. (3, 2) is on the curve
  4. (0, –1) is on the curve
  5. (5, –6) is on the curve
