Ten years of monthly data of a seasonally adjusted series are used to estimate a linear trend model as T = 24.10+ 0.32t. In addition, seasonal indices for January and February are calculated as 1.08 and 0.97, respectively. Make a forecast for the first two months of next year. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) ýt January February
For half-life demonstration, plot ln(half-lives) in the x-axis vs ln(no. of “tails-up” coins) in the y-axis. Perform linear regression to obtain the value of the slope, the value of the y-intercept, and the correlation coefficient r. What is the significance of these values?
Table 3 gives the market value of a luxury sedan (in dollars) xyears after its purchase. Find an exponential regression model of the form y= ab* for this data set.

Smith is studying the relationship between length (X) and weight (Y) of infants. Please help him fit an exponential growth model to find the relationship between length and weight. Write down the model and explain how to fit the model (i.e., how to estimate regression coefficients) and what the intercept is for the relationship between X and Y (in symbolic form).
Recently there has been a rise in fatal accidents caused by “distracted driving.” The United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) defines a distraction as anything that diverts attention from driving. The following model estimates the trend in distracted driving accidents over time based on data from the NHSTA:D = 0.015t - 29.97 In this model, D is the decimal to be turned into a percentage of all fatal accidents caused by distracted driving, and t is any calendar year between 2000 and 2020. Use the model to estimate the rate for 2005 and 2020. Note: this means to plug n 2005 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent. Then plug in 2020 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent.
