Limitations: Regression analysis is a commonly used tool for companies to make predictions based on certain variables. Even though it is very common there are still limitations that arise when producing the regression‚ which can skew the results. The Number of Variables: The first limitation that we noticed in our regression model is the number of variables that we used. The more companies that you have to compare the greater the chance your model will be significant. We have found that

Exercise 9 1. A farmer wanted to find the relationship between the amount of fertilizer used and the yield of corn. He selected seven acres of his land on which he used different amounts of fertilizer to grow corn. The following table gives the amount of fertilizer (in pounds) used and the yield of corn (in bushels)for each of the seven acres. Fertilizer Used (x) 120 80 100 70 88 75 110 Yield of Corn(y) 138 112 129 96 119 104 134 a. Find the least squares regression line. a. Calculate r and r2

Every human being on this Earth has experienced sadness and heartbreak. Some instances are harder to cope with than others. Death of a loved one can be the hardest to deal with. That is the very thing Conrad must deal with in Judith Guest’s book‚ Ordinary People. Con and Buck grew up together as brothers and best friends. Until‚ there was a boating accident that took Buck’s life. The story involves how Con and his family get through life without Buck anymore. There are many characters in this

calculus but it involves a lot of integral calculus as well‚ so in general‚ differential equations straddle the specific parts of basic calculus or it can be considered part of advanced calculus. There are two general types of differential equations. An ordinary differential equation involves only two variables‚ whereas a partial differential equation involves more than two. A differential equation can have many variables. The independent variable is the variable of concern from which the terms are derived

1. Find two (2) methods (other than Undetermined Coefficients) that can be used to solve higher order ODE. For each method‚ solve one higher order ODE problem. Answer: The general form of an ODE with order nis Fx‚ yx‚ y ’ ’x‚…‚ynx=f(x) As in the case of second-order ODEs‚ such an ODE can be classified as linear or nonlinear. The general form of a linear ODE of order is an(x)dnydxn+an-1(x)dn-1ydxn-1+…+a1(x)dydx+a0xy=f(x) If f(x)is the zero function‚ the equation is said to behomogeneous. Many

To understand the effect of a movie’s box office rankings has on its box office performance‚ Nonlinear Estimation models can be used to interpret the relationships and make recommendations. First‚ let us familiarize ourselves with the relationship‚ in the movies database‚ we are trying to analyze. This relationship is as below: Subsequent Earnings = b0*exponential(b1*ReleaseRank)

INTRODUCTION Open- and closed-loop transfer functions have certain basic characteristics that permit transient and steady-state analyses of the feedback-controlled system. Five factors of prime importance in feedback-control systems are stability‚ the existence and magnitude of the steady-state error‚ controllability‚ observability‚ and parameter sensitivity. The stability characteristic of a linear time-invariant system is determined from the system’s characteristic equation. Routh’s stability
