2. 'Knock-Em-Down' is a carnival game in which players throw a ball and try to knock down a pile of cans. At each level, more cans are added to the pile. Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 a. Complete the following table. The first three levels are completed for you. Level 2 3 4 5 6 Total No. 1 3 of Cans b. Determine a quadratic equation that models this data. You may use technology if you like, but be sure to explain how you arrived at your answer. c. Use the equation to determine the number of cans needed for level 15.

The North part of the city has two perfectly circular and concentric ring roads (see figure below), the outer ring road (OR) being twice as long as the inner ring road (IR). There are also four (straight line) chord roads from E1, the east end point of OR to N2, the north end point of IR; from N1, the north end point of OR to W2, the west end point of IR; from W1, the west end point of OR, to S2, the south end point of IR; and from S1 the south end point of OR to E2, the east end point of IR. Find the ratio of the sum of lengths of all chord roads to the length of outer ring road?

Robinson makes $200 a week and spends his entire income on running shoes and basketball shorts. Write down the algebraic expression for his budget constraint if running shoes and basketball shorts cost $20 each. How many of each good will he buy? Write down the algebraic expression for Mr. Robison’s budget constraint if the price of basketball shorts rises to $30 each. How many of each good will he buy? Illustrate the results in parts (a) and (c) and provide a decomposition of the income and substitution effect.
A man launches his boat from point A on a bank of a straight river, 4 km wide, and wants to reach point B, 3 km downstream on the opposite bank, as quickly as possible (see the figure below). He could row his boat directly across the river to point C and then run toB, or he could row directly to B, or he could row to some point D between C and B and then run to B. If he can row 6 km/h and run 8 km/h, where should he land to reach B as soon as possible? (We assume that the speed of the water is negligible compared to the speed at which the man rows.)

In Problem 3 in Chapter 3, we estimated the equationsleep = 3,638.25 - .148 totwrk -11.13 educ + 2.20 age (112.28) (.017) (5.88) (1.45)n= 706, R^2 = 0 .113,where we now report standard errors along with the estimates.(i) Is either educ or age individually significant at the 5% level against a two-sided alternative? Show your work.(ii) Dropping educ and age from the equation givessleep = 3,586.38 - 0.151 totwrk (38.91) (.017)n= 706, R^2= 0.103. Are educ and age jointly significant in the original equation at the 5% level? Justify your answer.(iii) Does including educ and age in the model greatly affect the estimated tradeoff between sleeping and working?
