GRADIENT FUNCTION

The aim of this assignment is to find the relationship between the gradient function. For this assignment I will use the height of drops and the number of drops needed to crack open nuts of different sizes; large, medium and small. The models are then compared in terms of the usefulness of the models.

The table below shows the average number of drops it takes to break open large nuts from varying heights.

Large nuts

Let (h) metres be the height of drop and (n) be the number of drops. The graph below is of n against h

From the graph above, the number of drops to crack open the nuts depends on the height of the drop. Therefore the independent variable is the height of the drop (h) while the dependent variable is the number of drops (n). The control variable is the size of the nuts which is large for the above specific graph.

Parameters, the characteristic of the population:

The coordinates of the graph form a smooth line. The number of drops is decreasing as the height increases. The height of a drop can never be negative or zero, therefore, ...
