Transforming to Achieve Linearity Answers

Water is being poured into a large, cone-shaped cistern. The volume of water, measured in cm3, is reported at different time intervals, measured in seconds and is displayed in scatterplot A. Two transformations of the data are shown in the second and third graphs. Scatterplot B displays the relationship between time and the log of volume. Scatterplot C displays the relationship between the log of time and the log of volume. Which model best represents the relationship between time and volume?

When a stone is dropped in a pond, ripples are formed and travel in concentric circles away from where the stone was dropped. The relationship between the time and area of the circles was analyzed and is shown in the computer output.
