The weather company you work for is performing an analysis on predicting sandstorms accurately in Phoenix. You have been given a large dataset and are asked to determine which factors could be used to accurately predict them.

The dataset you are provided with has over 50 variables. With your vast knowledge of Excel, you determine that 4 variables can be used as predictors to accurately predict sandstorms. Your boss is not convinced and decided to ask you some questions.

1. You mentioned that before you even begin doing this “regression analysis” of yours, you discarded about half of the variables. How did you choose which variables to discard, and more importantly, why does it matter?

2. You asked a friend and he told you that in his company they use both “Relative Humidity” and “Number of Sunny Hours” to predict sandstorms. In your report, you mention you only use the “Relative Humidity”, because of it being highly correlated with “Number of Sunny Hours”.  However, by themselves each are good predictors, why didn’t you use both? Wouldn’t that make the model better?

3. By looking at the correlation matrix you created between independent variables and the dependent variable, which independent variables based on the type of correlation did you discard or keep, and why?
   1. Strong positive correlation
   2. Weak positive correlation
   3. No correlation
   4. Weak negative correlation
   5. Strong negative correlation

Kumar’s business was doing well and it made him a profit of $20,000 each month. He needed to make some modifications to his business premise and thus engaged Bob Builders to do the renovation work. He wanted it completed by 31 May. He was assured that the work would be completed in time. He was informed that the renovation work would begin immediately after Council approval for the renovations was granted and that Council approval would normally only take 15 days. A contract was signed for the renovation work but it did not mention anything about Council approval of the renovation work or the assurance of work being started promptly after approval by the Council. The Council took a longer time than expected to approve the renovation work. In the meantime, Bob Builders picked up another renovation project with Matt and started working on that. When approval finally arrived for Kumar’s renovation work, Bob Builders found that it was too busy with the other project and did not start on Kumar’s renovation work. Bob Builderstold Kumar that his project would have to wait for another two months before they would start on it. They blamed the Council for the delay. As a result of all of this, Kumar’s business got disrupted and he lost two months of profit. The work was only completed on 31 July . He also lost a lucrative contract worth $100,000 during the period of delay in completing the renovations. Advise Kumar as to his rights in Contract Law.

Question 1: Write a program in C++ using multi filing which means 3 files ( main file, header file, and functions file) and attached screenshots as well. Attempt the Question completely which contain a and b parts

a) Write a program that takes a number from the user and checks whether the number entered validates the given format: “0322-5441576”, xxxx-xxxxxxx where “x” implies the digits only and first two digits are 0 and 3 respectively. The program also identifies the Network of the given number. (Use of string related functions is a must)

b) Write a program that takes a string from the user, identifies and counts all unique characters in that given string. You are bound to use only built-in string functions where necessary. For identification of unique characters and for counting of the characters make separate functions.

For character identification

Develop a program that takes a string argument, and returns an array containing all unique characters.

For character counting

Develop a program that takes an array returned from above function as an argument along with the given string and return an array containing the total count of each uniquely identified character present in the argument array.

Note: kindly write a proper code of program mention in Question and answer complete Question along with both parts and screenshots Thanks.....

Carbohydrates are the main sources of fuel for the body. They’re broken down into glucose, which
is “burned” as fuel for the body.
i. What is expected to occur when the body’s supply of glucose runs out?
ii. Would insulin or glucagon be of any importance in this regard? Explain your answer.
iii. As a nurse on duty, a patient is brought to the emergency ward with symptoms of weakness,
dizziness, headache and slight disorientation. The patient has a history of diabetes. Give a
step by step description of what you will do to take care of this patient. What would you
