02 Oct Making Sense of Data
39616Discussion: What Is My Data Saying?
You have a meeting coming up and you need some information to support what you will be saying to your boss and the others in attendance. What can you do? You can find some supportive data and create a graph to make your point visually appealing.
In this Discussion, you will find data that is modeled and analyze the results and forecast possible ways the data might change.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Read the required reading from this week’s Learning Resources.
Look for examples in almanacs, newspapers , magazines, or on the Internet that could be modeled using linear, exponential, logarithmic, and quadratic functions.
After you review the different examples of how the data can be modeled in real life, choose one type of function to focus on.
Post an image that represents a real situation where the function of your choice is modeled. Place the image either within the Discussion area or as an attachment.
Make sure to do the following:
Identify the type of function that is being modeled
Make a prediction based on the model as to what you think will occur in the future. How will the data continue to change?
Identify what factors might change the accuracy of your prediction.
