did you plot to see what it looks like?

@mathmate can you help? related to a log function?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

@BreannaLeigh When there is a data set like this, the very first step is, as @triciaal said, is to plot it. Try plotting it on Desmos or any similar software.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

To me, it does not look like a log function, more like a linear function with an outlier. @BreannaLeigh you will see this instantly when you plot the data. Please share your plot with us when it's done.

@mathmate @triciaal

OpenStudy (mathmate):

@BreannaLeigh Good work! Now you have to decide if you want to remove the outlier and use regression to find a straight line through the remaining points. Perhaps you could also tell us if you have done linear regression in class.
