In the Managerial​ Solution, we estimated a focus​ group's demand curve for iTunes downloads. The estimated coefficient on price was

negative 413−413​,

and the​ t-statistic was

negative 12.8−12.8.

Using these​ values, what is the standard error of this estimated​ coefficient?

The standard error of the price coefficient is

32.2732.27.

​(Enter your response rounded to two decimal​ places.)

Suppose we had another focus group​ sample, ran a regression on that​ sample, and obtained the same coefficient on price but with a standard error

fivefive

times as large. What can you say about the statistical significance of the price coefficient in this second​ sample?

(2.1, problems 2, 7) In the following problems, the scenarios are vaguely stated. Form

these vague scenarios, identify a problem you would like to study. Which variables

affect the behavior you have identified in the problem identification? Which variables

are the most important? Remember, there are really no right answers.

(a) A retail store intends to construct a new parking lot. How should the lot be illuminated?

(b) The United States Food and Drug Administration is interested in knowing if a new drug is effective in the control of a certain disease in the population.

Show that if a, b are positive integers and d = hcf(a, b), then there are positive integers s, t such that d = sa − tb.

a. Show that for any y ∈ Rⁿ, show that yy^T is positive semidefinite.

b. Let X be a random vector in Rⁿ with covariance matrix Σ = E[(X − E[X])(X − E[X])^T]. Show that Σ is positive semidefinite.

2. Let X and Y be real independent random variables with PDFs given by f and g, respectively. Let h be the PDF of the random variable Z = X + Y .

a. Derive a general expression for h in terms of f and g

b. If X and Y are both independent and uniformly distributed on [0, 1] (i.e. f(x) = g(x) = 1 for x ∈ [0, 1] and 0 otherwise) what is h, the PDF of Z = X + Y ?

Problem Set 2: A product developer wanted to know if the preferred type of graphics differs between video-gamers and non-gamers. He had 7 gamers and 7 non-gamers evaluate both types of graphics. The data is presented below, with higher numbers indicating a higher preference. Did graphic preference type differ between gamers and non-gamers? (Note – this is a small sample size so that you can practice selecting an appropriate statistical test and write-up results.)

1. Paste appropriate SPSS output. (2 pts)

2. Paste appropriate SPSS graph. (If there is no significance, create an appropriate graph to display the interaction of the two variables). (2 pts)

3. Write an APA-style Results section based on your analysis. All homework “Results sections” should follow the examples provided in the presentations and textbooks. They should include the statistical statement within a complete sentence that mentions the type of test conducted, whether the test was significant, and if relevant, effect size and/or post hoc analyses. Don’t forget to include a decision about the null hypothesis. (4 pts)

Interpret what this Truth table tells you. What’s your claim regarding Elmo and Big Bird’s colors using the truth table you constructed? Does the information (T and F) from your Truth Table align with reality? How is this process and constructing a Truth Table useful?

4.(12 pts) A 20,000 liter tank is initially half full with 10,000 liters of 2% nitric acid. A solution of 5% nitric acid is pumped in at a rate of 30 liters per minute and the well mixed mixture is pumped out at the same rate of 30 liters per minute.

(a)(8 pts) Set up (But Don’t Solve) an IVP whose solution gives the amount of x(t) of pure nitric acid (in liters) in the tank at time t

(b)(4 pts) Use a quick qualitative analysis of the IVP you found in part (a) to predict how much pure nitric acid will be in the tank as t→infinity(Show a phase line or direction field to predict what happens as t→infinity

spring-mass system has a spring constant of 3 Nm. A mass of 2 kg is attached to the spring, and the motion takes place in a viscous fluid that offers a resistance numerically equal to the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity. If the system is driven by an external force of 15cos(3t)−10sin(3t) N,determine the steady-state response in the form Rcos(ωt−δ).

A dorm at a college houses 1900 students. One​ day, 20 of the students become ill with the ​flu, which spreads quickly. Assume that the total number of students who have been infected after t days is given by:

N(t)=1900/1+25e^-0.65t

Question B: The following integral is important in a particular geometry problem

For each of the following methods, write down what happens as you try it, but don't spend very long on it.

i) Try a simple u-substitution.

ii) Try integration by parts.

iii) Try trig substitution.

iv) Any other ideas?

v) optional: what if b=a? Can you simplify it and solve it?

Let p be an odd prime and a be any integer which is not congruent to 0 modulo p.

Prove that the congruence x 2 ≡ −a 2 (mod p) has solutions if and only if p ≡ 1 (mod 4).

Hint: Naturally, you may build your proof on the fact that the statement to be proved is valid for the case a = 1.

|x_n –α| ≤ c | x_n-1- α|² for all n.

1. Show by induction that c | x_n- α| ≤ c | x₀ - α|²ⁿ , and give some condition
