For each of the situations below an equation is proposed as a model to relate an independent variable to a dependent variable. Consider the situation in which data has been obtained and needs to be analyzed to find the unknown constants in the model. Suggest a form of the given equation that would be useful for regression analysis. Indicate what should be plotted as the dependent and independent variables (to assess linearity) and how the unknown constants in the original equation relate to the slope and intercept that would appear on the plot (calculated from the "transformed" variables).
