Exercise 14 presented data on body weight x and metabolic clearance rate/body weight y. Consider the following intrinsically linear functions for specifying the relationship between the two variables: (a) ln(y) versus x, (b) ln(y) versus ln(x), (c) y versus ln(x), (d) y versus 1/x, and (e) ln(y) versus 1/x. Use any appropriate diagnostic plots and analyses to decide which of these functions you would select to specify a probabilistic model. Explain your reasoning.
