Question

The table shows the yield (in bushels per acre) and the total production (in millions of bushels) for corn in a country for selected years since 1950. Let x represent years since 1900. Find a logarithmic regression model (y = a + b ln x) for the yield. Estimate the yield in 2026. Year x Yield 1950 50 34 1960 60 57 1970 70 75 1980 80 100 1990 90 115 2000 100 135 2010 110 151 The regression model is y = + ( )ln x. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Step 1

So, for example, the year 1950 would be represented as 50 (since it's 50 years after 1900), 1980 would be 80, and so on. Show more…
