A rental car company has an imbalance of cars at seven of its locations. The following net- work shows the locations of concern (the nodes) and the cost to move a car between loca- tions. A positive number by a node indicates an excess supply at the node, and a negative number indicates an excess demand.

Suppose you believe that population abundance (A) of a particular species is a linear function of vegetation coverage (V) and the presence of a predators (P). Surveys where conducted across 20 sites and found the following information: a) There was an average of cover of .406 (40.6%) of the area, with an average 6.8 predators and 61.55 individuals in our target population. b) ⟨V2⟩=0.231⟨V2⟩=0.231, ⟨P2⟩=76.300⟨P2⟩=76.300, ⟨VP⟩=2.933⟨VP⟩=2.933, ⟨VA⟩=36.329⟨VA⟩=36.329, ⟨PA⟩=379.300⟨PA⟩=379.300 Set up the appropriate system of equations needed for a the linear regression of a model of the form A=aV+bP+cA=aV+bP+c.

6) The following data is available for a simple hedonic home price model. Lot size and house size are continuous variables. For example, for every 100 square feet in house size, the value of the home increases by $150x100=15,000. Regarding proximity to a hospital, any home within 3 miles of a hospital is worth an additional $10,000 premium. Beyond 3 miles, there is no premium. What is the value of a 2,000 square foot home on a 5,000 square foot lot 2 miles from the hospital? Coefficient Value Description Lot size in Sq Ft House in Sq Ft Within 3 Miles of Hospital 60 150 10,000
