Consider the following time series data of sales per year: year sales 1995 22.2 1996 23.0 1997 24.4 1998 25.8 1999 27.6 enter these data in excel and run the following regression: sales = intercept + slope * year note that the year is the independent variable and sales is the dependent variable. develop a two tail test for the theory that the slope of the regression line is different from zero.

Consider the following generator matrix: g= (1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0) find all the codewords generated by this generator matrix. determine the number of errors that this code will detect. determine the number of errors that this code will correct. prove that a linear code's minimum weight is equivalent to its minimum distance. that is, where c is a linear code, dist(c) = wh(c)

Which one of the following is considered a peripheral? a software b mouse c usb connector d motherboard

The idea that, for each pair of devices v and w, there’s a strict dichotomy between being “in range” or “out of range” is a simplified abstraction. more accurately, there’s a power decay function f (·) that specifies, for a pair of devices at distance δ, the signal strength f(δ) that they’ll be able to achieve on their wireless connection. (we’ll assume that f (δ) decreases with increasing δ.) we might want to build this into our notion of back-up sets as follows: among the k devices in the back-up set of v, there should be at least one that can be reached with very high signal strength, at least one other that can be reached with moderately high signal strength, and so forth. more concretely, we have values p1 ≥ p2 ≥ . . ≥ pk, so that if the back-up set for v consists of devices at distances d1≤d2≤≤dk,thenweshouldhavef(dj)≥pj foreachj. give an algorithm that determines whether it is possible to choose a back-up set for each device subject to this more detailed condition, still requiring that no device should appear in the back-up set of more than b other devices. again, the algorithm should output the back-up sets themselves, provided they can be found.\
