What this AI HL non-linear regression and log scales worksheet covers

Fitting exponential, power and logarithmic models by linearising with logarithms, and reading log-scale graphs. The questions follow the order of the AI HL syllabus for Topic 4 (Statistics & Probability) and are graded in three bands — routine practice, exam-standard, and the harder multi-step questions that separate a 6 from a 7.

Linearising y = abˣ and y = axᵇ with logarithms
Regression on transformed data and converting back
Reading and plotting semi-log and log-log graphs
Comparing models using R²
Exam tip for this topic. After regressing on log y, convert the intercept back with 10ᶜ (or eᶜ) — forgetting this is the classic error.

How to use it

  1. Do the first band without the AI HL formula booklet, then check which formulas you had to look up — those are the ones to memorise.
  2. Time the second band at roughly 1.2 minutes per mark, the pace of Paper 1 and Paper 2.
  3. For the third band, compare your method with the matching questions in the AI HL question bank; if you want this set marked, send it to Mr Ahmad.
