- The file P02_26.xlsx lists sales (in millions of dollars) of Dell Computer during the period 1987–1997 (where year 1 corresponds to 1987). Year Sales 1 69 2 159 3 258 4 389 5 546 6 890 7 2014 8 2873 9 3475 10 5296 11 7759 a. Fit a power and an exponential trend curve to these data. Which fits the data better? b. Use your part a answer to predict 1999 sales for Dell. c. Use your part a answer to describe how the sales of Dell have grown from year to year.arrow_forwardUsing the data in Table 6–11, calculate a 3-month moving average forecast for month 12.arrow_forwardSection 2.2 (81) In the early stages of the deadly SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) epidemic in 2003, the number of cases was increasing by about 18% each day. On March 17, 2003 (the first day for which statistics were reported by the World Health Organization), there were 167 cases. Find an exponential model that predicts the number of cases "t" days after March 17, 2003, and use it to estimate the number of cases on March 31, 2003. (The actual reported number of cases was .)arrow_forward
