Which equation is represented by the graph below ?

C) y = ln(x) + 4  

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can't be A or B, because they are exponential functions, and they can have negative x-values.

It must be one of the two ln functions, because they can't have negative values of x.

To decide between C and D, insert a value of x that makes it easy to calculate the value of y.

Let x = 1.

For Equation C,

y = ln(1) + 4  = 0 + 4 = 4

For Equation D,

y = ln(1) + 5  = 0 + 5 = 5

We draw a vertical line from x = 1 and see where it intersects the graph.

The intersection is at (1, 4), so the correct equation is

y = ln(x) + 4

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
