A country's census lists the population of the country as 254 million in 1990, 286 million in 2000, and 314 million in 2010. Fit a second-degree polynomial passing through these three points. (Let the year 2000 be x = 0 and let p(x) represent the population in millions.)

p(x) = ________million

Use this polynomial to predict the populations in 2020 and in 2030.

2020_________million

2030 ________million

Does regular exercise reduce the risk of a heart attack in males over 40 years of age? Here are two ways to study this question.


Does regular exercise reduce the risk of a heart attack in males over 40 years of age? Here are two ways to study this question.
STUDY A: A medical researcher finds 2000 men over 40 who have had heart attacks. She also finds 2000 men over 40 who have not had a heart attack. She asks each man in each group whether they exercised regularly as part of his usual lifestyle.
STUDY B: Another researcher finds 4000 men over 40 who have not had heart attacks and are willing to participate in a study. She assigns 2000 of the men to a regular program of supervised exercise. The other 2000 continue their usual habits. The researcher follows both groups for three years.
a) Name the explanatory and response variables in this study.
b) What type of study design is used in each of Study A and Study B?
c) Which design will produce more trustworthy data? Explain why.
d) Draw a schematic diagram to outline the design above that is an experiment

year make model mileage price
2004 Honda Odyssey EXL   20 26900
2004 Honda Odyssey EX 21 23000
2002 Honda Odyssey 33 17500
2002 Honda Odyssey 41 18999
2001 Honda Odyssey EX 43 17200
2001 Honda Odyssey EX 67 18995
2000 Honda Odyssey LX 46 13900
2000 Honda Odyssey EX 72 15250
2000 Honda Odyssey EX 82 13200
2000 Honda Odyssey 99 11000
1999 Honda Odyssey 71 13900
1998 Honda Odyssey 85 8350
1995 Honda Odyssey EX 100 5800



Compute the correlation between age (in years) and mileage for these minivans. (Assume the correlation conditions have been satisfied and round your answer to the nearest 0.001.)

Statistics Canada reports the following annual average rates of growth over each of three periods:                          &nbs

  1. Statistics Canada reports the following annual average rates of growth over each of three periods:

                                    1961-1980       1980-2000       2000-2011

real GDP (Y)               5.0%                3.2%                1.7%

labour (N)                   2.9%                2.2%                1.3%

capital (K)                   5.7%                3.9%                3.4%                

It has been estimated that the elasticity of output with respect to capital is αk= 0.34 and the elasticity of output with respect to labour is αn= 0.66.

                                    1961-1980       1980-2000       2000-2011

real GDP                     5.0%                3.2%                1.7%

labour                          1.914%           1.452%            0.858%

capital                         1.938%            1.326%            1.156%

productivity                1.148%            0.42%              -0.31%

QQQQ

Write, in your own words and based on the table you have filled up in question 2 above, a super-short history of economic growth in Canada over these 50 years (1961-2011). That is, describe why the Canadian economy was growing and how the reasons for the growth have changed over time.

Calculate: What is the population change/growth, natural increase, and net migration for each of the four populations. Fill in the table below. Hint: estimate using the “Demographic Balancing Equation.” Hint: In the table, you can express answers absolute numbers.

Calculate: Using data from the above table/calculations, what is the net-migration rate for Oakwood during this ten-year period (2000-2010)? Hint: assume that all migration and natural increase was evenly spaced during the ten-year interval between 2000 and 2010. This assumption should help you figure out an estimate of the mid-year population for Oakwood.    

                                                                                                     ____________________ (per 1000)

Discuss: Using the above data/calculations, can you estimate the gross migration rate of these four populations? Why or Why not?

The management of Acme Widgets has agreed that a relational database management system should be implemented to track its customer and order information.

Case Study: Taking the Plunge/ CIW: Database Design Specialist

The management of Acme Widgets has agreed that a relational database management system should be implemented to track its customer and order information. Joe is now tasked with recommending a specific RDBMS.
Joe conducts several interviews with management in order to put together a requirements document. He is able to ascertain the following:

  • The preliminary budget is minimal.

  • The preliminary schedule is tight (management wants the system in place as soon as possible).

  • Company sales have been increasing rapidly (approaching nearly 10,000 widgets sold per day), so the product must be scalable.

  • The product must run on Windows, but may one day be ported to a different operating system.

  • The system must provide enough basic security to protect confidential data.

After reviewing his requirements document and investigating several database management systems, Joe recommends MySQL 8.0 because it is open-source (which satisfies the budget constraint) and because it can import data from the spreadsheets in which it is currently stored. MySQL also offers sufficient scalability, portability, and security.

As a class, discuss Joe's recommendation of MySQL 8.0. What are the advantages of using an open-source product? What are the disadvantages? Based on the requirements document Joe has constructed, what other DBMS products (open-source or proprietary) might serve equally well for Acme Widgets Inc.?
