For each of the problem, derive the general formula for general data set (xi, yi), i = 0, 1, · · ·‚m. Then apply it to the following data set: Xi -1 2 3 Yi 5/4 4/3 5/12
(c). Now, if the table is thought to conform to a relationship y = log(3x), what is the value of ß obtained by the method of least squares? Hints: There are possibly several ways of solving. There we suggest two of them. (i) Utilize the identity log ab = loga + log b; (ii) Express 3 in terms of (x, y). You are encouraged to try both. Do you get the same answer? Would you like to comment on that?
