I have the value of production waste (m3/day) and also the consumption (kwh/day) of some locations. You can see below that I have total information for locations 1 to 10. However, I don't have a consumption value for units 11 to 15. Therefore, I would like to know if it is possible to find these values, based on the consumption values I already have. It's important to note that they don't have to be exact values, but rather an estimate of what the value could be.

   Locations  Production Consumption
1          1  239.936000      467.36
2          2  422.183520       795.2
3          3    5.863376       176.2
4          4   23.993600      467.36
5          5  406.091680       738.5
6          6  143.961600     2226.36
7          7   42.348704      107.13
8          8   61.679680      198.63
9          9   12.956544       210.3
10        10  182.058268     1198.96
11        11 6168.500000            
12        12  714.593000            
13        13  268.545000            
14        14  175.200000            
15        15  227.577500

    Welcome to MSE! You're asking us to find predictive modeling for you... This is a so broad topic, that you are unlikely to get a response to your question. I suggest that you have a first look at regression analysis to analyze by yourself what kind of model can fit your problem. – mathcounterexamples.net Jul 20 '22 at 20:14

Ploting the available data, it seems natural to fit the data with a function of the form $g(p) = \alpha + \beta \sqrt p$. Using the least squares method, you see that best fit is $g(p)=0.7533 + 46.1266 \sqrt p$. In the graphic below you can see the data points (blue) and the fit (red).

However this was quite arbitrary... Maybe there are aspects of this specific situation that advise a different approach.
