I want to fit log(y) = 3/log(x) over log(y) vs log(x) plot. I know x and y.
Please help me with it.

Hi @Giru Mishra,
To visualize the model log(y)=3log(x)\log(y) = \frac{3}{\log(x)}log(y)=log(x)3​ alongside your data in a log(y)\log(y)log(y) vs log(x)\log(x)log(x) plot, you can utilize the MATLAB code below. This will overlay your actual data points and the theoretical model for comparison. Please ensure that all values the arrays “x and y are positive before applying the logarithm.
% Replace with your actual data
x = [...]; % Vector of x values
y = [...]; % Vector of y values
% Ensure positive values
assert(all(x > 0) && all(y > 0), 'x and y must be positive for log.');
% Compute logarithms
logx = log(x);
logy = log(y);
% Theoretical model: log(y) = 3 / log(x)
model_logy = 3 ./ logx;
% Plot actual vs model
figure;
plot(logx, logy, 'bo', 'DisplayName', 'Actual log(y)'); hold on;
plot(logx, model_logy, 'r-', 'LineWidth', 2, 'DisplayName', 'Model: log(y) = 3 / log(x)');
xlabel('log(x)');
ylabel('log(y)');
title('log(y) vs log(x) with model overlay');
legend;
grid on;
I hope this is beneficial!
