The population (p) of a small community on the outskirts of a city grows rapidly over a 20- year period: t (time) p (population) 10 15 20 100 200 450 950 2000 As an engineer working for a utility company, you must forecast the population 5 years into the future in order to anticipate the demand for power. Use an exponential model and linear regression to make this prediction. Determine r?. Plot the data along with the curve.

4. When an anthropologist finds skeletal remains, they need to figure out the height of the person. The height of a person (in cm) and the length of their metacarpal bone (in cm) were collected and are shown in below table. Find a regression equation between the height of a person and the length of their metacarpal. Then use the regression equation to find the height of a person for a metacarpal length of 54 cm.

Analysts at a start-up company are analyzing 35 months of sales data. They partition the data (the first 20 observations are assigned to the training set; the most recent 15 months are in the test set). The only independent variable is T (month number, ranging from 1 to 35). Five models (polynomials of order 1 - 5) are fit to the data. The first order is just the linear model; the 2nd order polynomial is the quadratic model; order 3 is the cubic model, etc. In each case the model is fit on the training data, and scored on both the training and test data sets. The results are below. Based on this output, which is the best predictive model?

You are provided with last year’s data showing which high school students chose standard or advanced coursework. The predictor variables include their writing score, math score, and science scores from previous years. Your task is to build a model that predicts if this year's incoming students are in advanced or standard coursework given the above predictor variables. Which model is suitable for this task? Linear regression k-means Clustering Logistic Regression Regression tree

Mary: "Before we run the multivariate linear regression, feature scaling should be performed." Give one reason to support Mary's idea. Moreover, should we perform feature scaling before or after the gradient descent?
Assume the following simple regression model, Y = β0 + β1X + ϵ ϵ ∼ N(0, σ^2 ) Now run the following R-code to generate values of σ^2 = sig2, β1 = beta1 and β0 = beta0. Simulate the parameters using the following codes: Code: # Simulation ## set.seed("12345") beta0 <- rnorm(1, mean = 0, sd = 1) ## The true beta0 beta1 <- runif(n = 1, min = 1, max = 3) ## The true beta1 sig2 <- rchisq(n = 1, df = 25) ## The true value of the error variance sigmaˆ2 ## Multiple simulation will require loops ## nsample <- 10 ## Sample size n.sim <- 100 ## The number of simulations sigX <- 0.2 ## The variances of X # # Simulate the predictor variable ## X <- rnorm(nsample, mean = 0, sd = sqrt(sigX)) Q1 Fix the sample size nsample = 10 . Here, the values of X are fixed. You just need to generate ϵ and Y . Execute 100 simulations (i.e., n.sim = 100). For each simulation, estimate the regression coefficients (β0, β1) and the error variance (σ 2 ). Calculate the mean of…
An instructor who taught two sections of engineering statistics last term, the first with 25 students and the second with 40, decided to assign a term project. After all projects had been turned in, the instructor randomly ordered them before grading. Consider the first 15 graded projects. (a) What is the probability that exactly 10 of these are from the second section? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) What is the probability that at least 10 of these are from the second section? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) What is the probability that at least 10 of these are from the same section? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (d) What are the mean value and standard deviation of the number among these 15 that are from the second section? (Round your mean to the nearest whole number and your standard deviation to three decimal places.) mean projectsstandard deviation projects (e) What are the mean value and standard deviation of…
