Required:
a. What type of pattern exists in the data?
b. Use simple linear regression analysis to find the parameters for the line that minimizes MSE for this time series.
c. What is the forecast for year 10?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. A linear pattern exists in the data.

b. The parameters for the line that minimizes MSE for this time series are as folows:

ß1 = Estimated slope = 1.4567

ß0 = Estimated intercept = 4.7165

Also, we have:

MSE = Mean squared error = 0.4896

c. Forecast for year 10 is 19,280.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What type of pattern exists in the data?

Note: See Sheet1 of the attached excel file for the line graph.

From the line graph, it can be observed that a linear pattern exists in the data.

b. Use simple linear regression analysis to find the parameters for the line that minimizes MSE for this time series.

Note: See Sheet2 of the attached excel file for all the calculations to obtain the following:

Sample size = 9

Total of X = 45

Total of Y = 108

Mean of X = Total of X / Sample size = 45 / 9 = 5

Mean of Y = Total of X / Sample size = 108 / 9 = 12

SSxx = Total of (X - Mean of X)^2 = 60

SSyy = Total of (Y - Mean of Y)^2 = 130.74

SSxy = Total of (X - Mean of X) * (Y - Mean of Y) = 87.40

Therefore, we have:                

ß1 = Estimated slope = SSxy/SSxx = 87.4 / 60  = 1.4567

ß0 = Estimated intercept = Mean of Y – (ß1 * Mean of X) = 12 - (5 * 1.4567) = 4.7165

Therefore, the parameters for the line that minimizes MSE for this time series are as folows:

ß1 = Estimated slope = 1.4567

ß0 = Estimated intercept = 4.7165

Regression equation which also used in the attached excel is as follows:

Y = ß0 + ß1X =

Y = 4.7165 + 1.4567X …………………. (1)

SSE = Sum of squared error = Total of (Y - Y*)^2 = 3.4273

Therefore, we have:

MSE = Mean squared error = (SSE/(n-2)) = (3.4273 / (9 - 2)) = 0.4896

c. What is the forecast for year 10?

This implies that X = 10

Substitute X = 10 into equation (1), we have:

Y = 4.7165 + (1.4567 * 10) = 19.28

Since it is 1,000s, we have:

Y = 19.28 * 1,000 = 19,280

Therefore, forecast for year 10 is 19,280.

Find in the triangle. Round to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer:

D. 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right triangle we can use sin, cos, tan.

Use cosine because the values of the adjacent side and hypotenuse are already given.

cos(θ) = 72/87

Because we are solving for the angle measure (and not the measure of the side) we need to use inverse cos.

cos⁻¹ = 72/87

In this diagram, ABAC – AEDF. If the
area of ABAC = 6 in?, what is the
area of AEDF?

Answers

Answer:

2.7 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles have the same angles, and all side lengths (or other distances) of one triangle have the same scaling factor to the side lengths of the other triangle.

so, we know the relation between the 2 baselines is 2/3, as this is the factor to turn the baseline of the large triangle into the baseline of the smaller triangle.

in other words

EF = BC × 2/3

2 = 3 × 2/3

correct

how do we calculate the area of a triangle ?

Area = baseline × height / 2

from BAC we know

Area = 6

baseline = 3

height = ?

6 = 3 × height / 2

12 = 3 × height

height = 4

aha !

now, EDF has a height too that we need to calculate is Area. and this height has the same scaling factor compared to the larger triangle as the side lengths : 2/3

so, for EDF we know

Area = ?

baseline = 2

height = 4 × 2/3 = 8/3

therefore, the area is

Area = (2 × 8/3) / 2 = (16/3) / 2 = 8/3 = 2.66666... ≈ 2.7

the shirt answer would be :

we know from the 2 baselines that the scaling factor for each distance is 2/3.

for the area we need to multiply 2 distances, so that means we have to multiply both by 2/3. and so on the formula for the area we have to use 2/3 × 2/3.

2/3 × 2/3 = 4/9

=>

Area small = Area large × 4/9 = 6 × 4/9 = 24/9 = 8/3 ≈ 2.7

Find the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector. (Give the direction angles correct to the nearest degree.) c, c, c , where c > 0

Answers

Answer:

cos(∝) = 1/√3

cos(β) = 1/√3

cos(γ) = 1/√3

∝ = 55°

β = 55°

γ = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

vector is z = < c,c,c >

the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector = ?

Cosines are the angle made with the respect to the axes.

cos(∝) = z < 1,0,0 > / |z|

so

cos(∝) = < c,c,c > < 1,0,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( c + 0 + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(∝) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

∝ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

cos(β) = < c,c,c > < 0,1,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + c + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(β) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

β = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

cos(γ) = < c,c,c > < 0,0,1 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + 0 + c ) / √[ 3c² ]

cos(γ) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3

γ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°

Therefore;

cos(∝) = 1/√3

cos(β) = 1/√3

cos(γ) = 1/√3

∝ = 55°

β = 55°

γ = 55°

The F critical value can be obtained thus ;

F(df regression, df error)

Using an α-value of 0.01

F(2, 12) at α = 0.01 is 6.927

The F statistic as obtained from the ANOVA table = 134.65

Since, F statistic > F critical we reject the Null and conclude that slope values are significantly > 0

Similarly,

Using the Pvalue :

The Pvalue of the slope are extremely small :

Viscosity <0.0001

Load <0.0001

At α = 0.01, 0.025

Answer:

[tex]P(x < 3) = 25\%[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters can be represented as:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {5} & {4} & {3} & {2} & {1}& {0} & P(x) & {25\%} & {30\%} & {20\%} & {15\%} & {5\%} & {5\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (a): P(x < 3)

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(x < 3) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x =2)[/tex] ----- i.e. all probabilities less than 3

So, we have:

[tex]P(x < 3) = 5\% + 5\% + 15\%[/tex]

[tex]P(x < 3) = 25\%[/tex]

Solving (b): Expected number of events

This is calculated as:

[tex]E(x) = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(x) = 5 * 25\% + 4 * 30\% + 3 * 20\% + 2 * 15\% + 1 * 5\% + 0 * 5\%[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 125\% + 120\% + 60\% + 30\% + 5\% + 0\%[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 340\%[/tex]

A hotel manager believes that 23% of the hotel rooms are booked. If the manager is right, what is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

Answers

Answer:

0.9216 = 92.16% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A hotel manager believes that 23% of the hotel rooms are booked.

This means that [tex]p = 0.23[/tex]

Sample of 610 rooms

This means that [tex]n = 610[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.23[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{610}} = 0.017[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%?

p-value of Z when X = 0.23 + 0.03 = 0.26 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.23 - 0.03 = 0.2. So

X = 0.26

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.26 - 0.23}{0.017}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.76[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.76[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9608

X = 0.2

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.2 - 0.23}{0.017}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.76[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.76[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0392

0.9608 - 0.0392 = 0.9216

0.9216 = 92.16% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

William has been contracted to paint a school classroom. The classroom is 20 m long, 15 m wide and 5 m high. There are four windows (2m by 3m) and a door (2m by 1m). Determine the cost of painting the ceiling at N$ 6.50/m²​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

l -> length

b -> width

h -> height

Find the area of four walls and ceiling. then subtract the area of four windows and a door form that area.

Area of four walls + ceiling = 2( lh + bh) +lb

 = 2*(20*5 + 15*5) + 20*15

= 2( 100 + 75) + 300

= 2* 175 + 300

= 350 +300

= 650 sq m

Area of window = 2 *3 = 6 sq.m

Area of four windows = 4*6 = 24 sq.m

Area of door = 2 * 1 =  2 sq.m

Area of four walls excluding 4 windows and door = 650 - 24 - 2 = 624 sq.m

Cost of painting = 624 * 6.50

                          = $ 4056

Answer:  1950 dollars to paint the ceiling only (ignoring the walls)

The cost to paint the walls only is 2106 dollars.

It seems a bit strange how your teacher mentions the windows and doors, but then asks about the ceiling only. Perhaps this is a red herring, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, to directly answer the question, we'll need to find the area of the ceiling first. The ceiling is a rectangle of dimensions 20 m by 15 m, so its area is 20*15 = 300 square meters.

Since paint costs 6.50 dollars per square meter, the total cost for the ceiling alone is 6.50*300 = 1950 dollars

If your teacher only cares about the ceiling, then you can stop here (and ignore the next section below).

---------------------------

If you wanted to find the cost to paint the walls, then we need to find the area of the walls.

For now, ignore the windows and door. Two opposite walls have area of 20*5 = 100 m^2 each. That accounts for 2*100 = 200 m^2 of wall area so far.

The other pair of opposite walls have area 15*5 = 75 m^2 each. That's another 2*75 = 150 m^2 of wall area.

In all, the total wall area without considering the windows or door is 200+150 = 350 m^2.

Now we consider the windows. Each window is 2 m by 3 m, yielding an area of 2*3 = 6 m^2. Four such windows have a total area of 4*6 = 24 m^2.

The door is 2 m by 1 m, so its area is 2*1 = 2 m^2

We'll subtract the wall area and the combined window+door areas to get

wallArea - windowArea - doorArea = 350-24-2 = 324

So after accounting for the windows and door, the amount of wall to paint is 324 m^2, which leads to a cost of 6.50*324 = 2106 dollars.

Therefore, painting the walls and ceiling gets us a total cost of 1950+2106 = 4056 dollars

This section is entirely optional if your teacher only cares about the ceiling.

math help plz
how to solve parabola and its vertex, how to understand easily and step by step with an example provided please

Answers

Answer:

The general equation for a parabola is:

y = f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c

And the vertex of the parabola will be a point (h, k)

Now, let's find the values of h and k in terms of a, b, and c.

First, we have that the vertex will be either at a critical point of the function.

Remember that the critical points are the zeros of the first derivate of the function.

So the critical points are when:

f'(x) = 2*a*x + b = 0

let's solve that for x:

2*a*x = -b

x = -b/(2*a)

this will be the x-value of the vertex, then we have:

h = -b/(2*a)

Now to find the y-value of the vertex, we just evaluate the function in this:

k = f(h) = a*(-b/(2*a))^2 + b*(-b/(2*a)) + c

k =  -b/(4*a) - b^2/(2a) + c

So we just found the two components of the vertex in terms of the coefficients of the quadratic function.

Now an example, for:

f(x) = 2*x^2 + 3*x + 4

The values of the vertex are:

h = -b/(2*a) = -3/(2*2) = -3/4

k = -b/(4*a) - b^2/(2a) + c

=  -3/(4*2) - (3)^2/(2*2) + 4 = -3/8 - 9/4 + 4 = (-3 - 18 + 32)/8 = 11/8

A study is done to determine the average salary for all Santa Clara County teachers. If we were to randomly pick 15 schools in Santa Clara County and average together the salaries of all teachers, would this be a good sampling technique or a bad sampling technique

Answers

Answer:

Good sampling technique

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to determine the mean value for a population, it may be necessary to make inference from the a small subset of the population, called the sample, if it is impossible, difficult or inefficient to get all population data. Hence, in other to select a subset of the population, then the sample must be selected at random, such that all elements of the population have equal chances of being selected and hence, be representative of the population. Since, the sampling technique adopted above is done at random, hence, it is a good sampling technique.
