According to data from a Texas agricultural report, the amount of nitrogen (in lbs/acre), phosphate (in lbs/acre), and labor (in hr/acre) needed to grow honeydews, yellow onions, and lettuce is given in the following table. Source: The AMATYC Review. Let Nitrogen Phosphate Labor Phosphate (in lbs): Labor (in hours): Honeydews 120 180 4.97 h = # of acres of honeydew, y = # of acres of yellow onions, and 1=# of acres of lettuce planted. Assuming that the farmer has 26800 lb of nitrogen, 25000 lb of phosphate, 400 hours of labor, and 290 acres available for planting, write down a system of equations for the resources. Nitrogen (in lbs): Acreage (in acres): Yellow Onions 150 80 4.45 Lettuce 180 80 4.65

Shortleaf Pines. The ability to estimate the volume of a tree based on a simple measurement, such as the diameter of the tree, is important to the lumber industry, ecologists, and conservationists. Data on volume, in cubic feet, and diameter at breast height, in inches, for 70 shortleaf pines was reported in C. Bruce and F. X. Schumacher’s Forest Mensuration (New York: McGraw-Hill, 1935) and analyzed by A. C. Akinson in the article “Transforming Both Sides of a Tree” (The American Statistician, Vol. 48, pp. 307–312). The data are provided on the WeissStats site. a. obtain and interpret the standard error of the estimate. b. obtain a residual plot and a normal probability plot of the residuals. c. decide whether you can reasonably consider Assumptions 1–3 for regression inferences met by the two variables under consideration.
The owner of a moving company typically has their most experienced manager predict the total number of labor hours that will be required to complete an upcoming move. The approach has proven useful in the past, but the owner has their business objective of developing a more accurate method of predicting labor hours. In a preliminary effort to provide a more accurate method, the owner has decided to use the number of cubic feet moved as the independent variable and has collected data for 36 moves. The data is seen below: Hours Feet 24.00 545 13.50 400 26.25 562 25.00 540 9.00 220 20.00 344 22.00 569 11.25 340 50.00 900 12.00 285 38.75 865 40.00 831 19.50 344 18.00 360 28.00 750 27.00 650 21.00 415 15.00 275 25.00 557 45.00 1028 29.00 793 21.00 523 22.00 564 16.50 312 37.00 757 32.00 600 34.00 796 25.00 577…

Cellulon, a manufacturer of home insulation, wants to develop guidelines for builders and consumers on how the thickness of the insulation in the attic of a home and the outdoor temperature affect natural gas consumption. In the laboratory, it varied the insulation thickness and temperature. A few of the findings are: Monthly Natural Gas Consumption (cubic feet), Thickness of Outdoor Insulation Temperature (OF), (inches), X1 X2 30.3 6. 40 26.9 12 40 22.1 49 On the basis of the sample results, the regression equation is: ŷ = 62.65 – 1.86x, – 0.52x2 a. How much natural gas can homeowners expect to use per month if they install 6 inches of insulation and the outdoor temperature is 40 degrees F? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

A study was carried out to determine the influence of a trace elementfound in soil on the yield of potato plants grown in that soil, defined asthe weight of potatoes produced at the end of the season. A large fieldwas divided up into 14 smaller sections for this experiment. For eachsection, the experimenter recorded the amount of the trace elementfound (in milligrams per metre squared) and the corresponding weightof the potatoes produced (in kilograms). This information is presentedin the worksheet ‘Dataset5’ in the Excel document. Define X as thetrace element amount and Y as the yield.1. Draw a scatterplot of your data set.Page 52. Calculate the coefficients of a linear equation to predict the yieldY as a function of X.3. Calculate the correlation coefficient for the paired data values.4.
