An important advance in ecological research is the Theory of Island Blogeography, which demonstrates a relationship between the size of islands and the number of species of different amphibians that can be found in the islands, The scatterplot of number of species versus island area (in thousands of square miles) is nonlinear. The graphs below show the results of two different transformations of the data. Model I plots the square of the number of species against area. Model II plots the square root of the number of species against area. Linear regression analyses are provided below. Model II: VNumber of species vs. Area Model I: (Number of Species)? vs. Area 10 8000 9. ecies)

Flying twice as farA flight from Los Angeles to ABQ is about 2 hours but is 670.2 miles.A flight from San Jose to Chicago is 4 hours but is 1859.0 miles.Can anyone explain why the travel time from San Jose to Chicago is notlonger and closer to 5.75 hours?If the distance increase by 2, shouldnt the time increase by a factorof 2 as well?1. Write a linear model for this question. Takeoff and landing will take a fixed amount of time. Actualtravel in the air will take time proportional to the distance traveled. Think about which of thevariables (time and distance) is the independent variable, and identify the slope and intercept withtheir units.2. Use the data in the quotation to estimate the two constants in your linear model.

Please answer this question and show all work and steps to how the answer was found.

Relate how the independent and dependent variables affect each other.

The graph shows the heights of mothers and daughters. (Source: StatCrunch: Mother and Daughter Heights.xls. Owner: craig slinkman)    (a) As the data are graphed, which is the independent variable and which the dependent variable?    (b) From the graph, approximate the predicted height of the daughter of a mother who is 60 inches (5feet) tall.    (c) From the equation, determine the predicted height of the daughter of a mother who is 60 inches tall.    (d) Interpret the slope.    (e) What other factors besides the mother's height might influence the daughter’s height?

A research study recorded the out-of-state tuition fees for a sample of public and for-profit colleges in the United States, and the results can be downloaded from the data file Tuition. Summarize this data by creating histograms with StatKey, and submit your graph as a PDF. When creating your graphs, please make sure the number of buckets is set to 10.
