First question of homework:

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

Second set of question of homwork: @Michele_Laino

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

Third set of question: @Michele_Laino

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All Correct

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

This question goes with the third set: Just didnt have enough room:

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

Final set of questions:

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

Now @Michele_Laino I know this is a lot but they should all be correct!

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

Only one or two of them isnt answered!

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

One of these questions is the one you worked with me on!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok! Now let's strat from question of yesterday: http://assets.openstudy.com/updates/attachments/56549274e4b0959c2b137f7d-howard-wolowitz-1448383304920-mathquestion.jpg

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops... start*

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

are you ready?

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

yes i am

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok! Here is the reasoning: we have to conjecture a relationship like below: \[y = A \cdot {B^x}\] where \(y\) is the number of fishes, and \(x\) is the number of months

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

ok im with you so far

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

we can \(linearize\) such equation, by taking the logarithm of both sides, so we get: \[\huge {\log _{10}}y = {\log _{10}}A + x{\log _{10}}B\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please wait a moment....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all corect

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

you didnt even look

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i did

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I'm very sorry! I continue: so we have to consider the subsequent table of values:

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

right so we consider the table and the values

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

|dw:1448385613174:dw|

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

now, using such data, we can to compute the values of the subsequent constant: \(\log_{10}A, \;\log_{10}B\)

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

ok

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

in order to do that, we have to use the subsequent formulas: \[\large \begin{gathered} \Delta = N\sum {x_i^2} - {\left( {\sum {{x_i}} } \right)^2} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ {\log _{10}}A = \frac{{\sum {x_i^2} \cdot \sum {\left( {{{\log }_{10}}{y_i}} \right) - \sum {{x_i}} \cdot \sum {\left\{ {{x_i}\left( {{{\log }_{10}}{y_i}} \right)} \right\}} } }}{\Delta } \hfill \\ \hfill \\ {\log _{10}}B = \frac{{N\sum {\left\{ {{x_i}\left( {{{\log }_{10}}{y_i}} \right)} \right\}} - \sum {{x_i} \cdot \sum {\left( {{{\log }_{10}}{y_i}} \right)} } }}{\Delta } \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

sadly i cant draw it

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Please, don't worry, I made such computation. Here are the results:

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

\[\Large {\log _{10}}A = 0.9011,\quad {\log _{10}}B = 0.6936\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so, we can write the predicted function as below: \[\huge {\log _{10}}y = 0.9011 + 0.6936 \cdot x\] now, do you recognize such function, among your options?

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

no

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please look at point #7

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please, what do you think about the second option of question #7 ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

@Howard-Wolowitz

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Please for the general formulas above, refer to this textbook: \[\begin{gathered} {\text{John}}\;{\text{R}}{\text{.}}\;{\text{Taylor}} \hfill \\ {\mathbf{An}}\;{\mathbf{Introduction}}\;{\mathbf{to\;Error}}\;{\mathbf{Analysis}}{\mathbf{.}} \hfill \\ {\mathbf{The}}\;{\mathbf{Study}}\;{\mathbf{of}}\;{\mathbf{Uncertainties}}\;{\mathbf{in}}\;{\mathbf{Physical}}\;{\mathbf{Measurements}} \hfill \\ {\text{University}}\;{\text{Science}}\;{\text{Books}}\;\left( {{\text{1982}}} \right) \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

can you check the rest of them for me

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

@tkhunny

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):

dude i just need someone to check these that i did
