Enter the data from Table 2 into a graphing calculator and graph the ranking scatter plot. Determine whetherthe data from the table would likely represent a function that is linear, exponential, or logarithmic.
What might a scatterplot of data points look like if it were best described by a logarithmic model?
What is the y -intercept on the graph of the logistic model given in the previous exercise?

Table 6 shows the population, in thousands, of harbor seals in the Wadden Sea over the years 1997 to 2012. a. Let x represent time in years starting with x=0 for the year 1997. Let y represent the number of seals in thousands. Use logistic regression to fit a model to these data. b. Use the model to predict the seal population for the year 2020. c. To the nearest whole number, what is the limiting value of this model?
Explain why the values of an increasing exponentialfunction will eventually overtake the valuesof anincreasing linear function.
The half-life of plutonium-244 is 80,000,000 years. Find function gives the amount of carbon-14 remaining as a function of time, measured in years.
In 2014, Chile experienced an intense earthquake with a magnitude of 8.2 on the Richter scale. In 2014, Los Angeles also experienced an earthquake which measured 5.1 on the Richter scale. Compare the intensities of the two earthquakes.
The variable rdintens is expenditures on research and development (R&D) as a percentage of sales. Sales are measured in millions of dollars. The variable profmarg is profits as a percentage of sales. Using the data in RDCHEM for 32 firms in the chemical industry, the following equation is estimated: rdintens = .472 + .321 log(sales) + .050 profmarg (1.369) (.216) (.046) n = 32, R² = .099. (a) Interpret the coefficient on log(sales). In particular, if sales increase by 10%, what is the estimated percentage point change in rdintens? Is this an economically large effect? (b) Test the hypothesis that R&D intensity does not change with sales against the alternative that it does increase with sales. Do the test at the 5% and 10% levels. (c) Interpret the coefficient on profmarg. Is it economically large? (d) Does profmarg have a statistically significant effect on rdintens?

Based on the scatterplot and residual plot, what type of model would be appropriate for summarizing the relationship between days and number of views? A popular television show recently released a video preview for the upcoming season on its website. As fans of the show discover the video, the number of views of the preview video has grown each day during the last 2 weeks. The number of days since the release of the video and the natural log of the number of video views is shown in the scatterplot. O An exponential model is appropriate because the residual plot does not show a clear pattern. O A linear model is appropriate because the scatterplot shows a strong, positive linear relationship. In(Views) vs. Days O A power model is appropriate because the scatterplot of days and natural log of views is strong and linear. 10 9.5 An exponential model is appropriate because the relationship between days and the natural log of views is linear, and the residual plot does not show a clear…
In running a logistic regression, a statistician decided to include decade of life (20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s) as a categorical variable in the systematic component because they didn't believe the relationship between the log-odds and age was linear. Using dummy variables to create the systematic component, how many dummy variables would be needed to represented age?
