meaningful linear or logarithmic equation, because the data curves over the Y-axis, which cannot be accurately approximated by either line (or any function of quantity). Therefore, the results from this chart will not be well explained by the line and the R2 value will be low. Further, the upward slope of the data does not conform to the law of demand and thus cannot accurately represent reality. However, the second chart, CSD Sales vs. Real Price, does follow a downward pattern that the linear and logarithmic
