Based on the graphs, a linear regression model seems to be the best fit for the data.
For x (longitude versus t), I will be using a linear function.
For y (latitude versus t), I will also be using a linear function.
Step 3: Create a Mathematical Model
Work through the following steps to create two parametric equations where x is a function of t and y is a function of t. Remember t is just a parametric variable. You are creating two functions x(t) and y(t) ***If you use a linear regression for this portfolio the highest grade you are able to earn is a 70***
Plot x (longitude is the vertical axis) versus t (horizontal axis) (1 point)
The best fit function for y (latitude versus t) seems to be a linear function.
Plot y (latitude is the vertical axis) versus t horizontal axis. These should be two separate graphs. Make sure to submit the 2 graphs for your instructor to view. Label your axes and chose appropriate scales and ranges for your axis. Include a title for each graph. (1 point)
What type of function or regression model do you think would best fit the data based on your graphs? (1 points)
