Correlation and Regression Assignment Problem 1. a. Explain which variable you chose as the explanatory variable and discuss why. * The explanatory variable is the height. This is because I am assuming that as height increases‚ the weight will increase as well. So the weight is the dependent variable b. Produce a scatter plot and insert the result here. * Scatter plot c. Find the equation of the regression line‚ Write it in the form of y=a+bx‚ where a is the y-intercept

considers the relationship between two variables in two ways: (1) by using regression analysis and (2) by computing the correlation coefficient. By using the regression model‚ we can evaluate the magnitude of change in one variable due to a certain change in another variable. For example‚ an economist can estimate the amount of change in food expenditure due to a certain change in the income of a household by using the regression model. A sociologist may want to estimate the increase in the crime rate

MOTOR TEMPERATURE RATINGS A frequently misunderstood subject related to electric motors is insulation class and temperature ratings. This paper tries to describe‚ in basic terms‚ the temperature relationships that are meaningful in standard AC induction motors. Some of the same information can be applied to DC motors but DC motors are more specialized and some of the ratings are slightly different. Perhaps the best way to start is to define the commonly used terms. MOTOR SURFACE TEMPERATURES

The Vector equation of a plane To find the vector equation of a plane a point on the plane and two different direction vectors are required. The equation is defined as: where a is the point on the plane and b and c are the vectors. This equation can then be written as: The Cartesian equation of a plane The cartesian equation of the plane is easier to use. The equation is defined as: One of the advantages to writing the equation in cartesian form is that we can easily find the normal

Continuity Equations Continuity equation is a equation that explain the transport of a conserved quantity. Since‚ mass‚ energy‚ momentum are conserved under respective condition‚ a variety of physical phenomena may be describe using continuity equations. By using first law of thermodynamics‚ energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only transfer by continuous flow. Total continuity equation (TCE)‚ component continuity equation(CCE) and energy equation(EE) is applied to do mathematical model

The goal for this experiment is to determine which out of the four balanced chemical equations best represent the thermal decomposition of sodium bicarbonate. The guiding question will be answered with the outcome of the sodium bicarbonates thermal decomposition and it being plugged in into the four balanced chemical equations. John Dalton atomic theory explains two fundamental laws of chemistry which are the law of conservation of mass and the law of definite proportions. The atomic theory states

violence‚ 49% hid their identities from the patients and family‚ 74% of them reduced job satisfaction. In that study‚ after violent events‚ victims got support from their colleagues rather than officials (Bouthillette‚ Fernandes‚ Raboud et al.‚ 1999). Violence in workplace defined as any intended or actual use of either physical or psychological power to threaten‚ assault or injury a person in work-related circumstances‚ concern in the health-care sector
