The following figure is a scatterplot of voltage versus temperature, with three fitted curves superimposed. The curves are the linear model y = Bo + B,x + ɛ, the quadratic model y = Bo + B;x = B2x? + ɛ, and the cubic model y = Bo + B;x + Bx? + B3x² + ɛ. Based on the plot, which of the models should be used to describe the data? Explain. The linear model. ii. The quadratic model. iii. The cubic model. iv. All three appear to be about equally good. 115 110- E 105 100 90 85 10 20 30 Temperature ("C) 40 50 (A) ndino adeoAarrow_forward

Show ALL your work! b) Suppose we want to find the best function of the form y = a(-3)" +32" + y for this same data. Give the system Az z b that would find this best-fit function. You do NOT need to solve this; only specify the matrix A, and the vectors z and b.arrow_forward4. Find the first three nonzero terms in each of two linearly independent solutions of the equation.

She hangs various weights on one end of the spring and measures the length of the spring each time. A scatterplot of length (y) versus load (x) is depicted in the following figure. Inad a Is the model y = P, +B, x an empirical model or a physical law? b. Should she transform the variables to try to make the relationship more linear, or would it be better to redo the experiment? Explain.arrow_forward
