Make a scatterplot to help you determine what type of regression equation to choose from. Make sure to round any coefficients to 3 decimal places. 1. If you think the data is linear from the scatterplot then enter the answer as f(t)=mt+b, (no spaces between numbers or operators) or 2. If you think the data is exponential then type in your answer as f(t)=a(b)^t, (no spaces between numbers or operators) Time 1 2 13 4 5 6 7 hrs Number of bacteria present 6 17 90 245 304 590 1519 3801 in parts per million
