Can gender, educational level, and age predict the odds that someone votes for a particular candidate in the election? Over 1500 voters were selected, and data were col-lected on the highest year of school completed, their age, and their gender. We wish to t a logistic regression model: log(1 p p ) = 0 + 1Age + 2Education + 3Gender, where p is the binomial probability that a person voted for candidate Johnson, and gender is coded as the indicator for female. The R output is given below.

Listed below are amounts of court income and salaries paid to the town justices for a certain town. All amounts are in thousands of dollars. Find the (a) explained variation, (b) unexplained variation, and (c) indicated prediction interval. There is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation, so it is reasonable to use the regression equation when making predictions. For the prediction interval, use a 99%confidence level with a court income of $800,000.

- Focal Length A refracting telescope has a main lens, or objective lens, and a second lens, the eyepiece see Figure 3.42. For a given magnification M of the telescope, the focal length F of the objective lens is a linear function of the focal length Fe of the eyepiece. For example, a telescope with magnification M=80 times can be constructed using various combinations of lenses. The following table gives some samples of focal length for telescopes with magnification M=80. Here focal lengths are in centimeters. Fe 0.3 0.5 0.7 0.9 F 24 40 56 72 a. Construct a linear model for the data. b. In this example, the magnification M is 80. In general, F is proportional to Fe, and the constant of proportionality is M. Use this relation to write a formula for F in terms of Fe and M. c. Solve the equation you obtained in part b for M and thus obtain a formula for magnification as a function of objective lens focal length and eyepiece focal length. d. To achieve a large magnification, how should the objective and eyepiece lenses be selected?
