Explanation / Answer

y = aeb/x

taking ln both the sides:

ln y = ln a + b/x .........(1)

Now, we have to determine the value of a and b using graph, thus we need two equations.

At 1/x=0 , ln y =1

thus: putting in (1):    1= ln a + b*0

                              1 = ln a

                              a =e = 2.71

when 1/x = 1 , ln y =5

5 = ln a + b * 1

5 =1 + b

b=4
