A college bookstore must order books two months before each semester starts. They believe that the number of books that will ultimately be sold for any particular course is related to the number of students registered for the course when the books are ordered. They would like to develop a bestfitting line to predict how many books to order. From past records, the bookstore obtains the number of students registered, X, and the number of books actually sold for a course, Y , for 12 different semesters.A scatterplot of the data along with the best fitting line is presented below.
a. The correlation between the two variables is r = .89. Calculate and interpret the value of r2.b. The equation for the best fitting line is Y = 9.30 + 0.673X. Explain and interpret the value of 9.30.c. How many books should the store order for a class of 50 students? Would you trust this prediction?
Your workstation experiences seven consecutive collisions.
a. What is the minimum amount of time that it might have to wait before sending its frame?
b. What is the maximum amount of time it might have to wait?
c. If your workstation experiences 6 more collisions what will the maximum backoff be then?
