The rate of U.S. per capita sales of bottled water for the period 2000–2010 can be approximated by s(t) = −0.18t2 + 3t + 15 gallons per year (0 ≤ t ≤ 10), where t is the time in years since the start of 2000.† After conducting a survey of sales in your state, you estimate that consumption in gyms accounts for a fraction f(t) = 0.2 + 0.04t of all bottled water consumed in year t. Assuming that your model is correct, estimate, to the nearest gallon, the total amount of bottled water consumed per capita in gyms from the start of 2002 to the start of 2010.

Past class data has shown that the regression line relating the final exam score and the midterm exam score for students who take statistics from the College of Information Technology and Engineering from Dr. Kalaw is: final exam = 50 + 0.5 × midterm One interpretation of the slope is a. students only receive half as much credit (.5) for a correct answer on the final exam compared to a correct answer on the midterm exam. b. a student who scored 0 on the midterm would be predicted to score 50 on the final exam. c. a student who scored 10 points higher than another student on the midterm would be predicted to score 5 points higher than the other student on the final exam. d. a student who scored 0 on the final exam would be predicted to score 50 on the midterm exam.
A multiple OLS regression of maize output (Y) on improved maize seed (X1) and fertiliser (X2) inputs (all variables in kilograms) produced the following results: Y = -342 + 12.1X1 + 46X2 se = (17.23) (0.912) (8.713) R2 = 0.861 a) Calculate the t statistics associated with the constant, improved maize seed and fertiliser coefficients
Suppose you have a large, random sample of the variables Y and X. You then regress Y on X and get the following results (with standard errors in parentheses): Y=16.8-3.9x (3.8) (1.2) The numbers 16.8 and -3.9 are the realized values for the intercept and slope (respectively) of the regression equation describing the sample, which are consistent estimators for what population parameters? The intercept and slope (respectively) of the sample determining function. The intercept and slope (respectively) of the regression equation that best fits the population. Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to three decimal places. If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers: b. Provide a 99% confidence interval for each estimator's corresponding population parameter: Intercept: Slope:(------------) (-------------) Slope (-------------) (------------------)

The Australian Government has developed a survey to enable it to gauge the views of the Australian public regarding "Climate Change". The survey consists of a sample of 400 Australian Citizens and Permanent Residents regarding their views on a wide range of Climate Change topics. The Government intends to use the results of the survey to assist in the formulation of government policy for the next 30 years. The variables used in the dataset are as follows: Variable Name Explanation Options Cars Number of motor vehicles in your household Income Your income in Dollars ($) Support Belief that Australia should financially support developing countries in their efforts to address Climate Change (Yes, No) Cause Who/what you think is most responsible for Climate Change (Mostly Human, Mostly Natural, There is no Climate Change, Unsure/Undecided} Solar_Panels Willingness to Install Solar Panels For each of the scenarios outlined below, describe a type of Visualisation (i.e. a Chart/Table/Graph)…
You have noticed that paying higher wages attracts more productive employees. However, you are concerned that there may be a limit to this relationship. Some experimentation has convinced you that the relationship between wages paid (x) and profits can be modelled by the equation Profit = 25x − 0.1x2 + 200. Use a Nonlinear Solver tool to determine the level of wages that will maximize profits.
As the selling price of a product increases, demand decreases. Fewer people will buy a product if it is more expensive. This is a very important concept. The demand equation for new iSmarts is given by 0.025x , where p is the unit p = 100 price (in dollars) of the iSmart and x is the number of units produced. We can determine the total revenue (money earned for selling x iSmarts) by multiplying the number of items we sell, x and the price p. The total revenue obtained by producing and selling x iSmarts is given by = xp 100x – 0.025x². It makes sense that this function is quadratic. The company can price the iSmarts so high that no one will buy them and the revenue will be zero. The can also set the price to $0, but the revenue will still be $0, no matter how many iSmarts they "sell". In between, the graph is a parabola opening downward. Determine prices p that would keep revenue above 6530 dollars. Give your answers to 2 decimal places. The revenue will be above 6530 if price is…
You have collected data for the 50 U.S. states and estimated the following relationship between the change in the unemployment rate from the previous year (Aur) and the growth rate of the respective state real GDP (gy). The results are as follows: R² = 0.36, SER=0.78 Aur=2.81-0.23xgy (0.12) (0.04) Assuming that the estimator has a normal distribution, the 95% confidence interval for the slope is approximately the interval: OA. [2.57, 3.05]. OB. [-0.31, 0.15]. OC. [-0.31, -0.15]. OD. [-0.33, -0.13].
