Approximating a curve for the production rates

63 Views Asked by At

I am doing graduate research on chemical production rates, and I need to reproduce a logistic decay function. I have an upper and lower limit, 3 points and an inflection point:

Upper limit: $3.3$
Lower limit: $1.2$

3 points: $(7.5, 3.3)$, $(15.258, 1.3)$, $(16, 1.2)$.

Inflection point: $(11.6, 2.25)$.

It seems too easy, but hours of searching the internet (including this site) have yielded no results on how to make this equation. Sorry if this is a duplicate question.
