[Dependent] versus [Independent]. So in the case of the equation y = f(x), y is versus x. That is
why the graph was plotted as above. In excel, it was helpful to put time on the right side of the
table as it is the independent variable.
c) y
= 5.0016e-0.031x is the exponential equation that fit the graph the best.
