Smitley and Davis studied the changes in gypsy moth egg mass density over one generation as a function of the initial egg mass density in a control plot and two treated plots. The data below are for the cont plot. Initial Egg Mass (per 0.04 ha) Change in Egg Mass Density (%) 250 -100 -25 -25 -50 50 0 |50 75 100 160 175 180 200 A. On the basis of the data given in the table, find the best-fitting logarithmic function using least squares. State the square of the correlation coefficient. (Note that the authors used logarithms to the base 10 (Use 4 decimal places in your answers.) y(x) = B. Use this model to estimate the change in egg mass density with an initial egg mass of 120 per 0.04 ha. (Use 4 decimal places in your answer.)

Ocean currents are important in studies of climate change, as well as ecology studies of dispersal of plankton. Drift bottles are used to study ocean currents in the Pacific near Hawaii, the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and other islands. Let x represent the number of days to recovery of a drift bottle after release and y represent the distance from point of release to point of recovery in km/100. The following data are representative of one study using drift bottles to study ocean currents. x days 74 77 34 96 208 y km/100 14.9 19.1 5.8 11.9 35.7 (a) Find Σx, Σy, Σx2, Σy2, Σxy, and r.
