(a) Make a scatter plot of these data.
(b) Fit a linear model to the data.
(c) Fit an exponential model to the data.
(d) Fit a quadratic model to the data.(e) Use your equations to make a table showing the predicted temperature for each model, rounded to the nearest degree.
(f) The actual temperature at 8:00 p.m. (20 hours) was 70° F. Which model was closest? Which model was second-closest?
(g) All of the models give values that are too high for each of the times after 6:00 PM. What is one possible explanation for this?
