The owner of a moving company typically has his most experienced manager predict the total number of labor hours that will be required to complete an upcoming move. This approach has proved useful in the past, but the owner has the business objective of developing a more accurate method of predicting labor hours. In a preliminary effort to provide a more accurate method, the owner has decided to use the number of cubic feet moved as the independentvariable and has collected data for 36 moves in which the origin and destination were within the borough of Manhattan in New York City and in which the travel time was an insignificant portionof the hours worked. The intercept for the sample regression line that the owner has computed is -2.37 and the slope is 0.04. If the actual number of labor hours for moving 407 cubic feet is 33.47. What is the error of prediction? Hint: Provide answer accurate to 2 decimal places.
An engineer wants to compare the tensile strengths of steel bars that are produced using a conventional method and an experimental method. (The tensile strength of a metal is a measure of its ability to resist tearing when pulled lengthwise.) To do so, the engineer randomly selects steel bars that are manufactured using each method and records the following tensile strengths (in Newtons per square millimeter). At α=.10, can the engineer claim that the experimental method produces steel with greater mean tensile strength? Should the engineer recommend using the experimental method? First use the F test to determine whether or not to use equal variances in choosing the model.(??? ????? ?? ???? ?̅ ??? ? ??? ???ℎ ???ℎ??)

The City Council proposed to utilize government-owned land with an area of 21,600 square meters. One-third of the area will be used to plant mango trees while the rest of the land is where an emergency field hospital shall be built. As the city engineer, you were tasked to determine the rate at which the total average number of COVID cases is increasing at x=10 tents and dxdt=1 tent per day,given that if 25 tents are built, the average number of COVID cases per tent will be 6 cases while the average number of cases will increase by 2 per tent for each additional tent in the same area due to overcrowding.
A specimen of connective tissue (collagen) can be obtained from a beef steak. The temperature at which the collagen shrinks can be determined. A tender piece of meat tends to have a low collagen shrinkage temperature. So, the lower shrinkage temperature, the more tender the meat.It is believed that electrical stimulation of a beef carcass could improve the tenderness of the meat. In one study of this effect, beef carcasses were split in half; one side (half) was subjected to a brief electrical current and the other side was an untreated control. For each side, a steak was cut and tested in various ways for tenderness. In one test, the experimenter obtained a specimen of the connective collagen tissue from the steak and determined the temperature at which the tissue would shrink. The experimenter wishes to prove that electrical stimulation tends to improve the tenderness of the meat. The raw data are found in the table below. Let ? = 0.01. Table 1: Collagen Shrinkage Temperature…
Accumulation of mercury (Hg) in fish is hypothesized to correlate with the fish size. Barbonymus schwanenfeldii is a species commonly found in a dam in Sarawak. Table 1 shows data of Hg concentration (mg/kg) present in three sizes of fish caught in the dam in triplicates. (i, ii, iii was already answered.)

4. The measurement of the side of a square floor tile is 10 inches, with a possible error of 1/32 inch. a) Use differentials to approximate the possible propagated error in computing the area of the square. b) Approximate the percent error in computing the area of the square.
The City Council proposed to utilize government-owned land with an area of 9,600 square meters. One-third of the area will be used to plant mango trees while the rest of the land is where an emergency field hospital shall be built. As the city engineer, you were tasked to determine the rate at which the total average number of COVID cases is increasing at x=10 tents and dx/dt=1 tent per day, given that if 30 tents are built, the average number of COVID cases per tent will be 7 cases while the average number of cases will increase by 2 per tent for each additional tent in the same area due to overcrowding.
