Speed test. A police radar always overestimates the speed of incoming cars by an amount that is uniformly distributed between 0 and 10 km/hour. Assume that car speeds are uniformly distributed between 80 and 120 km/hour. If the radar's measurement for a car's speed is 124 km/hour, the LMS estimate of its speed is km/hour.

Four paints are being tested for weight loss in an abrasion machine. These paints differ in the proportion of one basic ingredient. The abrasion machine can handle three paint panels at one time. Yield is measured in terms of weight loss in a fixed period of time and at a fixed speed of the machine. Four runs are made. Consider run as block. The data are stated in coded units.

It is thought that prehistoric Indians did not take their best tools, pottery, and household items when they visited higher elevations for their summer camps. It is hypothesized that archaeological sites tend to lose their cultural identity and specific cultural affiliation as the elevation of the site increases. Let x be the elevation (in thousands of feet) for an archaeological site in the southwestern United States. Let y be the percentage of unidentified artifacts (no specific cultural affiliation) at a given elevation. Suppose that the following data were obtained for a collection of archaeological sites in New Mexico: 6.00 6.50 6.75 7.50 8.50 28 20 17 30 85 Find the value of the coefficient of determination 2.

Wolf packs tend to be large extended family groups that have a well-defined hunting territory. Wolves not in the pack are driven out of the territory or killed. In ecologically similar regions, is the size of an extended wolf pack related to size of hunting region? Using radio collars on wolves, the size of the hunting region can be estimated for a given pack of wolves. Let x represent the number of wolves in an extended pack and y represent the size of the hunting region in km2/1000.
