Fitting Exponential Models to Data · Exercise 60

Refer to the table.

$$\begin{array}{ccccccccccc}x& \text{0}& \text{2}& \text{4}& \text{5}& \text{7}& \text{8}& \text{10}& \text{11}& \text{15}& \text{17}\\ f\left(x\right)& \text{12}& \text{28.6}& \text{52.8}& \text{70.3}& \text{99.9}& \text{112.5}& \text{125.8}& \text{127.9}& \text{135.1}& \text{135.9}\end{array}$$

Use the intersect feature to find the value of $x$ for which the model reaches half its carrying capacity.
