In clear weather, the distance you can see from a window on a plane depends on your height above Earth, as shown in the table at right.
a. Graph various combinations of x, y, log x, and log y until you find a combination that linearizes the data.
b. Use your results from 9a to find a best-fit equation for data in the form (height, view) using the data in this table.
