I'm trying to find some sort of inverse relationship between two variables. I am working on some parallax scrolling in my iPhone app and I'd like to see if someone can help me find the formula for this data.
I don't think context is needed, so I'll just skip how I got this data and just go straight to the results.
I did some experimenting with a simple input variable and got my output variable, but I want to know a method for converting the input to the output. Here is my table:
x | y
.01 | 100
.1 | 10
.25 | 4
.5 | 2.0
.75 |~1.31
1 | 1
1.25 | ~.8
1.5 |~.663
1.75 |~.575
2.0 | .5
4 | .25
10 | .1
100 | .01
You can put the data in excel and try scatter-plot. From there you can make the trend line of power type. You will see that y=1/x is the approximate function that represent the given data.
