Mathematics in The Modern World: Predicted Discharge - 7792 + (4.226 X Year)

The document summarizes two math problems involving data about water discharge from the Davao River over time and the relationship between faculty and student numbers at small colleges in Davao City. For the first problem, the document finds that the volume of water discharged from the Davao River increases by 4.226 cubic kilometers on average each year based on the given regression equation. For the second problem, the document calculates the correlation between faculty and student numbers for different colleges and finds a high correlation of 0.812042. However, it determines that there is no significant relationship between the two variables to say that one is truly dependent on the other.

MATHEMATICS IN THE MODERN WORLD

Name: John Dave B. Bantayan Date: September 7, 2021

College/ Program: Bachelor of Science in Architecture Time: 12:30 P.M – 1:30 P.M

LET’S CHEck- ULOb

F. Solve the following problems.

1. The amount of water discharged by the Davao River has changed over time in roughly a
straight-line pattern. A regression line for predicting water discharged (in cubic
kilometers) during a given year is
predicted discharge = -7792 + (4.226 x year)
How much (on average) does the volume of water increase with each passing year?

Answer:

Davao City
Year Volume
1 -7787.774
2 -7783.584
3 -7779.322
4 -7775.096
5 -7770.87
Average 3
-7760
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
-7765

-7770

-7775

-7780

-7785

-7790

The volume of water increases with each passing year is -7779.322


2. The number of faculty and the number of students are shown for a random selection of
small colleges in Davao City. Is there a significant relationship between the two
variables? Switch x and y and repeat the process. Which do you think is really the
independent variable?

Faculty 99 110 113 116 138 174 220

Students 1353 1290 1091 1213 1384 1283 2075

Answer:
Students
Faculty Student 2500

99 1353 2000
110 1290
1500
113 1091
116 1213 1000

138 1384 500


174 1283
0
220 2075 0 50 100 150 200 250
r= 0.812042

Faculty
Student Faculty 250
1353 99
200
1290 110
150
1091 113
1213 116 100

1384 138
50
1283 174
0
2075 220 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500
r= 0.812042

Although the correlation value did not surpass 1.96, which is beyond the
boundaries of accepting the null hypothesis, there is no essential relationship between
the students and the faculty.
