question 7

Short Answer

TABLE 15-7
A chemist employed by a pharmaceutical firm has developed a muscle relaxant. She took a sample of 14 people suffering from extreme muscle constriction. She gave each a vial containing a dose (X) of the drug and recorded the time to relief (Y) measured in seconds for each. She fit a "centered" curvilinear model to this data. The results obtained by Microsoft Excel follow, where the dose (X) given has been "centered."

Definitions:

Interest Rate

The fraction of a loan amount that is applied as interest for the borrower, commonly indicated as an annual percentage of the remaining loan balance.

Compounded Annually

Interest calculation method where interest is added to the principal at the end of each year, and future interest calculations include this additional amount.

Interest

The cost of borrowing money or the return on investment for lenders, typically expressed as a percentage.

Rate of Return

The gain or loss on an investment over a specific period, expressed as a percentage of the investment's initial cost.
