Four levels, coded as −3, −1, 1, and 3 were chosen for each of two variables X1 and X2, to provide a total of sixteen experimental conditions when all possible combinations (X1,X2) were taken. It was decided to use the resulting sixteen observations to fit a regression equation including a constant term, all possible first-order, second-order, third-order and fourth-order terms in X1 and X2. The data were fed into a computer routine which ususlly obtains a vector estimate b = (X X) −1X Y The computer refused to obtain the estimates. Why? The experimenter, who had meanwhile examined the data, decided at this stage to ignore the levels of variable X2 and fit a fourth-order model in

The reflexive property of congruence lets you say that ∠pqr ≅

(b) suppose that consolidated power decides to use a level of significance of α = .05, and suppose a random sample of 100 temperature readings is obtained. if the sample mean of the 100 temperature readings is x⎯⎯ = 60.990, test h0 versus ha and determine whether the power plant should be shut down and the cooling system repaired. perform the hypothesis test by using a critical value and a p-value. assume σ = 5. (round your z to 2 decimal places and p-value to 4 decimal places.)
