Provide an appropriate response. -Give an example of a situation in which a logistic funct f(x)=a1+be−kxf ( x ) = \frac { a } { 1 + b e ^ { - k x } } would be a more appropriate model than an exponential function f(x) f(x)=aekxf ( x ) = a e ^ { k x } . Explain why you think the logistic model would be more appropriate.
