Fit a multiple linear regression model to estimate the SO2 concentration in the coming months.

Expert Solution

2. The multiple linear regression model is:

PPB = -34.6098 - 0.3287Time + 0.0514Temperature + 0.0061Relative Humidity + 0.0443Atmospheric Pressure

The output is:

	R²	0.571

The units of parts per million (ppm) and parts per billion (ppb) are commonly used by environmental chemists. In general, 1 ppm means 1 part of solute for every 106 parts of solution. (Both solute and solution are measured using the same units.) Mathematically, by mass, ppm can be expressed as shown below. ppm = µg solute g solution = mg solute kg solution In the case of very dilute aqueous solutions, a concentration of 1.0 ppm is equal to...

A country imports 5 billion tonnes of coal per year and domestically produces another 4.5 billion tonnes of coal per year.

Exercise 1: Tariffs and ElasticityA country imports 5 billion tonnes of coal per year and domestically produces another 4.5 billion tonnes of coal per year. The world price of coal is $50 per tonne. Assuming linear schedules, economists estimate the price elasticity of domestic supply to be 0.3 and the price elasticity of domestic demand to be 0.2 at the current equilibrium. Consider the changes in social surplus that would result from imposition of a $20 per tonne import fee...

In clinical applications, the unit parts per million (ppm) is used to express very small concentrations of solute, where 1 ppm is equivalent to 1 mg of solute per 1 L of solution. Calculate the concentration in parts per million for each of the following solutions. a) There are 39 μg of calcium in a total volume of 83 mL. b) There is 0.85 mg of caffeine in a total volume of 149 mL. c) There is 0.51 mg of...

A prescription medicine is supposed to contain an average of 250 parts per million (ppm) of a certain chemical. If the concentration is higher or lower than this, the drug may not be effective. The manufacturer runs a check to see if the mean concentration of the chemical in a large shipment conforms to the target level of 250 ppm or not. If it does not, the manufacturer will stop production (costing time and money) to remedy the situation. A...

The average number of accidents at controlled intersections per year is 4.2. Is this average a different number for intersections with cameras installed? The 43 randomly observed intersections with cameras installed had an average of 4.8 accidents per year and the standard deviation was 1.12. What can be concluded at the α α = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H 0 : H 0 : H 1 :...

1. Suppose total deposits of the commercial banking sector were $4,000 billion, the reserve requirement were 10%, excess reserves were $600 billion, and currency holdings were $1,000 billion. a. Calculate the ratio of excess reserves to deposits (%) and currency holdings to deposits (%). What is the value of the monetary base? b. Calculate the money multiplier for each of these three changes. For each case, what would be the impact on the money supply (deposits + currency) of a...
