Environmental conditions can affect the growth of coral. To study this, a researcher examined a species of coral that is found in
the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. At 12 localities, he determined the average annual calcification rate of coral over a
period of several years and the average annual maximum sea surface temperature during the same period. Calcification rate
affects the growth of coral, with higher rates corresponding to greater growth. The table contains data for these 12 localities.

Special dyes have been developed that only bind to DNA. The intensity of the color is directly related to the quantity of DNA present in the cell. A haploid cell would have a “low” amount of color, a cell in G1 would have a “medium” amount of color, and a cell in M phase would have a “high” amount of color.
Is this sort of assessment quantitative, qualitative or semi-quantitative? Justify your reasoning.
What is defined as the mathematical study of continuous change?

- Does the equation y=2.294e0.654t representcontinuous growth, continuous decay, or neither?Explain.arrow_forwardWe want to understand the relationship between sales growth rates (s) and project FCF growth rates (g). This is useful to think about, because in our spreadsheet models we often need an estimate of g but when we look for analyst forecasts, they often just apply to s. We consider a hypothetical firm in which there are Sales, COGS, Depreciation, Taxes, ONWC, and CAPEX occurring each year. You know that sales growth is constant and equals s. You further know that in any given year, COGS/Sales-c, the tax rate is p, the ratio of ONWC to Sales is n, and CAPEX-Depreciation, and Depreciation/Sales-d. s, c, p, n, and d are constants (i.e., fixed parameters that don't change over time). Perform an algebraic series of calculations. Start with FCF = (Sales - COGS - DA - Taxes - etc). Simplify the expression until it is in the form Sales. *((1-c-d)(1-p)-s/(1+s)*n).arrow_forwardIdentify the IV, DV, Control, and at least two Constants. Suggest a hypothesis for each scenario.After studying about recycling in his new issue of Organic Compost Quarterly, members of Filbert's compost club decided to investigate the effect of various recycled products on plant growth. Filbert's friends finally decided to compare the effect of different aged grass compost on Jalapeno pepper plants. Because decomposition is necessary for release of nutrients, the group hypothesized that older grass compost would produce taller pepper plants.Three flats of pepper plants (25 plants/flat) were grown for 5 days. The plants were then fertilized as follows:Flat A: 450 g of three-month-old compostFlat B: 450 g of six-month-old compostFlat C: 0 g of compostThe plants received the same amount of sunlight and water each day. At the end of 30 days the group recorded the height of the plants (cm) and then threw a party featuring Jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese!DV - IV -Control -…arrow_forward

The size of the town's population was recorded every 5 years after 1960. Using the variables x, for number of years since 1960, and y, for the size of the population, three models were created to predict the population from the number of years since 1960.arrow_forward
- The Jersey Dairy Products Company produces cheese, which it sells to supermarkets and foodprocessing companies. Because of concerns about cholesterol and fat in cheese, the company has seen demand for its products decline during the past decade. It is now considering introducing some alternative low-fat dairy products and wants to determine how much available plant capacity it will have next year. The company has developed an exponential smoothing forecast with a = .40 to forecast cheese demand. The actual demand and the forecasts from the model are as follows:Assess the accuracy of the forecast model by using MAD and cumulative error. If the exponential smoothing forecast model does not appear to be accurate, determine whether a linear trend model would provide a more accurate forecast.arrow_forwardThe Capital Asset Price Model (CAPM) is a financial model that attempts to predict the rate of return on a financial instrument, such as a common stock, in such a way that it is linearly related to the rate of return on the overal market. Specifically, RStockAiBo + BR Markets + e You are to study the relationship between the two variables and estimate the above model: R StockAi-rate of return on Stock A for month i, i = 1,2,---, 59. RMarket-market rate of return for month i, i=1,2,..., 59. B₁ represent's the stocks 'beta' value, or its systematic risk. It measure's the stocks volatility related to the market volatility. Bo represents the risk-free interest rate. The data in the .csv file contains the data on the rate of return of a large energy company which will be referred to as Acme Oil and Gas and the corresponding rate of return on the Toronto Composite Index (TSE) for 59 randomly selected months. Therefore Re, represents the monthly rate of return for a common share of Acme Oil…arrow_forwardWhat if the model is a conditional logistic model? Will the answer be anything different?

- There are several extensions of linear regression that apply to exponential growth and power law models. We will outline some of these extensions. First of all, recall that a variable grows linearly over time if it adds a fixed increment during each equal time period. Exponential growth occurs when a variable is multiplied by a fixed number during each time period. This means that exponential growth increases by a fixed multiple or percentage of the previous amount. College algebra can be used to show that if a variable grows exponentially, then its logarithm grows linearly. The exponential growth model is y = αβx, where α and β are fixed constants to be estimated from data. How do we know when we are dealing with exponential growth, and how can we estimate α and β? Please read on. Populations of living things such as bacteria, locusts, fish, panda bears, and so on, tend to grow (or decline) exponentially. However, these populations can be restricted by outside limitations such as…arrow_forwardHow does the discrete logistic growth model (Ricker) vary from that of deterministic form? Are there differences in the predictions as the input parameters change? K= 300 r= 0.5 N= 5 Time= 50arrow_forwardSuppose that you decide to fit a logistic regression model using these data. Let Y = 1 if a subject develops cancer and 0 otherwise. Let Finasteride = 1 if a subject received Finasteride and 0 if they received placebo.
