Given:
The scatter plot of a data set:
Concepts Used:
When points on the scatter plot of a dataset are clustered along a straight line, then the data is said to have linear correlation.
The collective nearness of these points to a single straight line indicates the strength of linear correlation. This can be estimated by the width of an oval enclosing all the points tilted along the said straight line. The larger the width, the lesser is the strength of the linear correlation.
If the value of
Calculations:
Draw an oval enclosing the points on the data.
Interpretation:
The oval enclosing the points is tilted along a straight line, indicating linear correlation.
The oval is much smaller in width as compared to its length. Thus, the strength of correlation is strong.
The oval is tilted along a line with positive slope, thus the direction of linear correlation is positive.
Conclusion:
The given scatter plot represent a data set with strong positive linear correlation.

- The spread of an infectious disease is often modeled using the following autonomous differential equation: dI - - BI(N − I) − MI, dt where I is the number of infected people, N is the total size of the population being modeled, ẞ is a constant determining the rate of transmission, and μ is the rate at which people recover from infection. Close a) (5 points) Suppose ẞ = 0.01, N = 1000, and µ = 2. Find all equilibria. b) (5 points) For the equilbria in part a), determine whether each is stable or unstable. c) (3 points) Suppose ƒ(I) = d. Draw a phase plot of f against I. (You can use Wolfram Alpha or Desmos to plot the function, or draw the dt function by hand.) Identify the equilibria as stable or unstable in the graph. d) (2 points) Explain the biological meaning of these equilibria being stable or unstable.arrow_forwardFind the indefinite integral.
