(c) (i )

Find the equation of the straight line that passes through the points (2, 1) and (3, 5). (2 marks)

(ii )

A researcher has collected data showing how the output y of an experiment depends upon the input x. After applying a semi-log transformation, the transformed data ts a linear model and the line of best t passes through the points (2, 1) and (3, 5). Find y as a function of x and state whether the relationship you nd is a power law or an exponential law. (3 marks)
