finding error

Featured Replies

I have some data with defined standard error. I should calculate the ln() of each data. do you know what would be the error of new data?

If y = ln(x)

 

What is dy/dx

 

What therefore is delta_y in terms of delta_x

 

Can you relate delta_y and delta_x to standard errors?

hum, as far as I know this kind of transformation is to obtain a linear graph, so dy/dx should be the slope. No idea what would happen to the error, tough.

sorry, I can not follow it. should i use the derivative of the function to calculate the error for each data?

Am I the only one who finds the question very ambiguous? Could you perhaps quote the exact question?

 

I want to find the error for each lnk. vobi36.jpg
