The engineer collects several samples from the manufacturer and records the following observations. Using the data below and what you have learned in Forecasting, determine the following (use four decimal places for values): 1) Which is the explanatory variable? 2) If we want strength to increase, what must we do to the temperature? Increase OR Decrease? 3) What should be the value of Temperature if we want Strength at 5,000? 4) What is the value of the standard error? | Temperature Strength Sample 1 185 5150 2 183 5125 3 187 5123 4 188 5140 5 189 5195 6 189 5190 7 192 5150 8 195 5155 9 196 5156 10 198 5162 11 193 5172 12 196 5196 13 200 5063 14 202 5025arrow_forwardHow to effectively draw Sectional Views in Engineering?arrow_forward
