Table 6 shows the population, in thousands, of harbor seals in the Wadden Sea over the years 1997 to 2012. a. Let x represent time in years starting with x=0 for the year 1997. Let y represent the number of seals in thousands. Use logistic regression to fit a model to these data. b. Use the model to predict the seal population for the year 2020. c. To the nearest whole number, what is the limiting value of this model?
What does the y -intercept on the graph of a logistic equation correspond to for a population modeled by that equation?
In a recent survey, ice cream truck drivers in Cincinnati, Ohio, reported that they make about $280 in income on a typical summer day. The income was generally higher on days with longer work hours, particularly hot days, and on holidays. The accompanying data file includes five weeks of the driver’s daily income (Income), number of hours on the road (Hours), whether it was a particularly hot day (Hot = 1 if the high temperature was above 85°F, 0 otherwise), and whether it was a Holiday (Holiday = 1, 0 otherwise).

A worker with a weight of 65 kg and a body surface area of 1.74 , performs physical work activities in several work environments as shown in the following table. The work activities of these workers require energy and a measured metabolic rate of 400 W/m2. During their work activities, the worker wears a coverall made of polyolefin and wears a headgear (1) Calculate the average WBGT of the work environment. (2) Perform an analysis related to the heat stress experienced by the worker, if the worker performs his work activities for 75% of his total working time and the rest is rest, (note: use TLV from ACGIH and ISO 7243)
Researchers studied the effect of a houseplant fertilizer on carrot sprout growth. They randomly selected some carrot seeds to serve as controls, while others were planted in aluminum planters to which fertilizer sticks were added. Other conditions were held constant between the two groups. The following table shows data on the heights of plants (in cm) 2 weeks after germination. Use a t test to investigate whether the fertilizer has an effect on average carrot sprout growth. Use a = 0.05.
Suppose the following model describes changes in the civilian unemployment rate: Δuert = −0.0405 − 0.4674Δuert −1. The current change (first difference) in the un- employment rate is 0.0300. assume that the mean-reverting level for changes in the unemployment rate is −0.0276. a. what is the best prediction of the next change? b. what is the prediction of the change following the next change? C. explain your answer to Part b in terms of equilibrium.
As the population ages, there is increasing concern about accident-related injuries to the elderly. An article reported on an experiment in which the maximum lean angle—the farthest a subject is able to lean and still recover in one step—was determined for both a sample of younger females (21–29 years) and a sample of older females (67–81 years). The following observations are consistent with summary data given in the article: YF: 28, 34, 32, 27, 28, 32, 31, 35, 32, 28 OF: 19, 14, 21, 13, 12 Does the data suggest that true average maximum lean angle for older females (OF) is more than 10 degrees smaller than it is for younger females (YF)? State and test the relevant hypotheses at significance level 0.10. (Use ?1 for younger females and ?2 for older females.)

Average IQ scores for young school children are known to be 100 (SD = 15). However, the literature indicates that children’s intelligence may be decreased if their mothers have German measles during pregnancy. Using hospital records, a researcher obtained a sample of n = 25 school children whose mothers all had German measles during their pregnancies.
