Caterpillar nitrogen assimilation and body mass. we explored the relationship between nitrogen assimilation and body mass (both on log scales) for data on a sample of caterpillars in Caterpillars. The Instar variable in the data codes different stages (1 to 5) of caterpillar development. a. Fit a model to predict log nitrogen assimilation (LogNassim) using log body mass (LogMass). Report the value of for this model.
b. Fit a model to predict LogNassim using appropriate indicators for the categories of Instar. Report the value of for this model and compare it to the model based on LogMass.
c. Give an interpretation (in context) for the first two coefficients of the fitted model in (b).
d. Fit a model to predict LogNassim using LogMass and appropriate indicators for Instar. Report the value of and compare it to the earlier models.
e. Is the LogMass variable really needed in the model of part (d). Does the linear trend appear to be better when the caterpillars are in a free growth period? (Again, we are not ready to fit more complicated models, but we are looking at the plot for linear trend in the two groups.)

Someone answer asap for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
