Re: Point of Intersection - Straight line and Curve
At this point the data is arbitrary, but I will be looking at growth
rates. One is a predicted (linear) and the other will be actual data
which is more of a curve. Thanks for the help.

I have real data points in which one of them forms a straight line and
the other is a curve(not a simple curve, but more jagged). When I
graph the two, I notice there is a point of intersection between the
straight line and the curve. This point of intersection is not one of
the "data" points that I have plotted. Is there a way to determine the
point of intersection of the line and the curve? Any help would be
appreciated!
What sort of data are we talking about?
