Here's a plot of the data:
exdf |>
ggplot(aes(x = TENURE, y = GrowthRate)) +
geom_point()
Looks like this:
I would like to model GrowthRate as a function of Tenure.
Just eyeballing the plot, I thought that maybe a Weibul regression would be appropriate. However, all I could find there was survival analysis where one passes a Surv() object to a regression and where the surv object contains 1/0 data for whether or not the observation has survived or not. i.e. binary data.
I'm being deliberately open ended here. What is a 'good' way to model the relationship between GrowthRate and Tenure?
