Growth data of a sunflower plant is given in the following table: Week 5 7 9 | 11 1 Height (cm) 3 13 22 51 127 202 227 248 252 (a) Curve-fit the data with a third-order polynomial. Use the polynomial to estimate the height in week 6. (b) Fit the data with linear and spline interpolations and use each interpola- tion to estimate the height in week 6. In each part make a plot of the data points (circle markers) and the fitted curve or the interpolated curves. Note that part (b) has two interpolation curves.

Suppose a researcher collects data on the air pollution levels, measured in milligrams per cubic meter, for both urban and rural areas in 35 states. The data is plotted with urban air pollution levels on the horizontal axis and rural air pollution levels on the vertical axis. Nevada is an outlier in the ?x‑direction. What must be true about this state? The urban air pollution levels for this state are much higher or lower than the rest of the states in the data set. The rural air pollution levels for this state are much higher or much lower than the rest of the states in the data set. This state is an influential observation. The rural air pollution levels for this state are much higher or lower than other states in the data set that have similar urban air pollution levels. The absolute value of the residual of this state is large.
We want to predict the selling price of a house in Newburg Park, Florida, based on the distance the house lies from the beach. Suppose that we're given the data in the table below. These data detail the distance from the beach (x, in miles) and the selling price (y, in thousands of dollars) for each of a sample of sixteen homes sold in Newburg Park in the past year. The data are plotted in the scatter plot in Figure 1.
