Walking in Seattle: It is common in large cities for people to travel to the center city and then walk to their final destination. In Seattle the percent P of pedestrians who walk at least D feet from parking facilities in the center city is given partially in the accompanying table.


a. Make a model of P as an exponential function of D.


 b. What percentage of pedestrians walk at least 200 feet from parking facilities?


 c. When models of this sort are made, it is important to remember that many times they are only rough indicators of reality. Often they apply only to parts of the data and may tell very little about extremes of the data. Explain why it is not appropriate to view this as an accurate model for very short distances walked.
