A system consist of two identical pumps, #1 and #2. If one pump fails, the system will still reoprate. However, because of the added strain, the remaining pump is now more likely to fail than was originally the case. that is, r=(#2 fails | #1 fails) > p(#2 fails)= q. If at least one pump fails by the end of pump design life in 7% of all systems and and both pump fail during that period in only 1%, what's the probability that pump #1 will fail during the pump design life?

tion 13 A least squares regression line a. may be used to predict a value of y if the corresponding value is given O b. implies a cause-effect relationship between x and y O c. can only be determined if a good linear relationship exists between x and y Od. All of these answers are correct.
The manager of the city pool has scheduled extra lifeguards to be on staff for Saturdays. However, he suspects that Fridays may be more popular than the other weekdays as well. If so, he will hire extra lifeguards for Fridays, too. In order to test his theory that the daily number of swimmers varies on weekdays, he records the number of swimmers each day for the first week of summer. Test the manager’s theory at the 0.0250.025 level of significance.

In an effort to isolate the determinants of absenteeism, Jacob estimates two different regressions, A and B, using time series data. The R2 is 0.63 for regression A and 0.91 for regression B. Which is the superior regression? Explain your reasoning.
4. Determine the equation of the least-squares approximating line that is the best fit for the data points (2, 6), (0, 2), and (1, 1).
You are given 6 data points (xi; yi) below, where i = 1,..., 6 that are observed from a model: y = a3x3 + a2x2 + a1x + a0 + n, where n is a zero-mean Gaussian noise. Estimate the coefficients: a0,...,a3 by setting up a linear system of equations, and solving it using least squares. (x1,y1) = (-3, -171.17478734011377) (x2, y2) = (-1.5, -26.283603386675573) (x3, y3) = (0, 10.342025892375206) (x4, y4) = (2, 34.71284310507833 (x5, y5) = (5.5, 733.5702844691194) (x6, y6) = (7, 1546.4530015969324)
Find the least-squares solution of Ax = b for A = H. FED and b = 1
If we have a series of experimental data of 2 variables A and B, with both sets of data related by the expression: A = B + C, where C is a constant. If by plotting A against B we obtain a straight line with a theoretical slope m and ordinate at the origin C, and by applying the least squares method we could determine C. But, as the previous expression can be transformed into B = A - C, we could also plot B against A and obtain C from the ordinate at the origin with a changed sign. Should the same value of C be obtained by both methods?(A). Yes, because the step from "A = B + C" to "B = A - C" is an exact algebraic transformation(B). Only in the case where A and B are equal(C). Only in the case where the errors of A and B are high, since the least squares method compensates for them(D). The most normal thing is that the same value is not obtained
An energy company uses three different processes for generating electricity. One of the processes uses wind energy (and so requires no fuel), while the other two consume a combination of biofuel and natural gas. Each process also requires some amount of labour and emits some amount of carbon dioxide. The amount of biofuel (in Mg) and natural gas (in mcf = mega cubic feet) consumed, the labour required (in person-hours), the carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted (in Mg), and the power generated (in MWh) per day of operation of each process is as follows: Process 1 2 3 Electricity generated 20 32 85 CO₂ produced 0 12 29 Labour Biofuel required required 20 0 13 10 18 30 Natural gas required 0 15 40 Each MWh of electricity can be sold at £144 and there is no limit on the amount that can be sold. Over its next planning period, the company has 320 person-hours for labour, 75 Mg of biofuel, and 90 mcf of natural gas available. (a) The company emits all the CO₂ it produces into the atmosphere.

Alaska's Katmai National Park celebrates fat bear week every year in the beginning of October, when brown bears are getting ready to go into hibernation. During the fat bear week, the public votes on bears to advance in the bracket through single-elimination rounds. Adult male bears regularly weigh around and even over 1000 pounds for their peak fall weights, while adult female bears generally weigh 1/3 less than the males. Suppose the weights of all ready-to-hibernate brown bears in the national park are distributed as shown in the following histogram. Weights of Bears 10 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 Weight in pounds The mean of all the peak fall bear weights is 695 pounds, and the standard deviation is 279 pounds, For a random sample of 30 bears, what is the probability of obtaining a sample mean less than 720 pounds? If the conditions to perform the necessary calculation are not satisfied, enter -1" instead. Give your answer accurate to four digits beyond the decimal point. Answer.…

lecture(12.11A): Researchers were interested in the effects of co-sleeping on nightime waking and crying in infants. .They assesed the number of minutes parents reported that their infants were awake and crying for a period of three days. Five of the infants co-slept with thier mothers(Co) and four infants slept in crib(Cr).The researchers wanted to see if there was a difference in the total number of minutes of crying during the 3 nights. for the two groups. A summary of the data is given below Co-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 8, 4, 7, 7, 6 Crib-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 30, 17, 22, 25 Test the hypotheses at (aplha=.05) level of signifcance. using the 5 step hypotheses testing procedure. Clealy state the null and alternative hypotheses. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
