1. Write out the limit definition of the
derivative function
2. What does h represent in this definition?
3. Explain the difference between the dx
notation and dx. You can use an example to
help your explanation
3. In section 2.6, we explored the definition of a
function being continuous at a point. We can
also determine when a function is differentiable
(has a derivative) at a point. List 3 examples of
when a function cannot be differentiable at a
point x - a. (hint: go to page 147 of your

suppose Zenos Manufacturing is contemplating investing in a new business. An existing company in the target industry has an equity beta of 0.90 but is very conservatively financed with a market value, equity-to-value ratio 95%. Zenos intends to use an equity-to-value ratio of 30%. What beta should Zeno use in estimating a cost of capital in the new business?

Your company manufactures plastic wrap for food storage. The tear resistance of the wrap, denoted by X, must be controlled so that the wrap can be torn off the roll without too much effort but it does not tear too easily when in use.
In a series of tests (see data table below), 15 rolls of wrap are made under carefully controlled conditions and the tear resistance of each roll is measured. The results are used as the basis of a quality assurance specification. If X for a subsequently produced roll falls more than two standard deviations away from the test period average, the process is declared out of specification and production is suspended for routine maintenance.

In recent years, a substantial amount of research has focused on a possible relationship between chemical contamination of various sorts and mental impairment in children. An article reported data on hair-lead concentration for a sample of mentally impaired children for which the cause of impairment was unknown. Sample statistics were
n = 41 X Bar = 16 ppm s = 5.36 ppm
The paper states that 14.27 ppm is considered the acceptable upper limit of hair-lead concentration.
Let μ= the average hair-lead concentration for all mentally impaired children with the cause of impairment unknown.
H0: μ = 14.27 versus H1: μ > 14.27 at 0.01 significance level
Does the given sample data support the research hypothesis that true average hair concentration for all such mentally impaired children exceeds the acceptable upper limit? Assume normality.
1. reject null hypothesis
2. fail to reject null hypothesis

B, The de-meaned variables will not vary.
C, We can estimate such a variable with fixed effects.
D, Because no fixed effects exists in such a case.

Infants, even newborns, prefer to look at attractive faces compared to less attractive faces (Slater, et al., 1998). In the study, infants from 1 to 6 days old were shown two photographs of women’s faces. Previously, a group of adults had rated one of the faces as significantly more attractive than the other. The babies were positioned in front of a screen on which the photographs were presented. The pair of faces remained on the screen until the baby accumulated a total of 20 seconds of looking at one or the other. The number of seconds looking at the attractive face was recorded for each infant. Suppose that the study used a sample of n = 9 infants and the data produced an average of M = 13 for the attractive face with an estimated standard error sM= 1 (SS = 72). If there were no preference, the 20 seconds should be divided equally between the two photographs. Note that all the available information comes from the sample. Specifically, we do not know the population mean or the…
