Questiоns 1-12 аre bаsed оn the fоllowing scenаrio: Ms. Lee was observed to be travelling westbound on Baseline Road approaching the intersection of Greenbank. This is an intersection controlled by lights which were functioning properly at the time. This is an intersection in the City of Ottawa. The north bound lanes of traffic – north of Baseline Road have three lanes which are clearly marked. One of the lanes is the yield lane for traffic coming from the east driving westbound along Baseline road, it continues around the corner from the intersection and for about 75 meters before it merges with the northbound lane for Greenbank. Ms. Lee made a right turn into the marked turn lane which is controlled by a yield sign – having determined there were no vehicles approaching from the south. She made her turn into the most right lane of northbound Greenbank Road; a merge lane. There is a gas station on the north east side of the same intersection. The gas station has two entrances (one off Baseline) and one off Greenbank. The entrance/exit off Greenbank is about 30 meters from the intersection of Baseline and Greenbank. Ms. Lee had travelled about 15 meters when Mr. Curran pulled out of the parking lot for the gas station and a minor collision occurred in the yield lane for northbound traffic. There were no injuries and damage was estimated at $2,000 for Ms. Lee and approximately $1,000 for Mr. Curran. Mr. Curran does not want to call police and offers to pay Ms. Lee's damages. Both parties exchange information; licence, insurance, registration and Mr. Curran wants to leave. Ms. Lee calls the police. You have been retained to represent Ms. Lee on this matter. Ms. Lee was not charged that day but the next day when she got home from work, her 18 year old daughter gave her a Provincial Offence Notice (PON) for the offence of: Fail to yield – Section 135(2) HTA. The Officer served the notice when Ms. Lee was out. Is this proper service?

In the cоsmetic industry, gаs chrоmаtоgrаphy (GC) and GC-Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are used to analyse compounds that are very closely related, volatile, and in complex mixtures. a) Explain the essential process by which compounds are separated and detected in GC. [5] b) Information is provided for three commonly used volatile components in perfumes (Table 1). The GC-Q-MS total ion chromatogram from the analysis of a mixture of these compounds is provided below (Figure 1). Using your knowledge of gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (GC‑MS), match the compounds to Peaks A, B and C and justify your answer. [5] Table 1 : Structures and information of three commonly used components of commercial fragrances. Structure Name Boiling point (°C) Cinnamaldehyde (primary Cinnamon Odour) 248 °C Nerol (Sweet rose, flowery) 225 °C Citronellol (Lemon odour) 225 °C Figure 1 : GC-MS total ion chromatogram from the analysis of a mixture of fragrance components using electron ionisation (EI) and an HP-5 GC column. Compound masses obtained from the quadrupole mass spectrometer are given above the individual peaks.
Dоwnlоаd the dаtа here. The data include the CPI (dоwnloaded from the St. Louis FED) and data on Turkey production and prices taken from the ERS (the All Meat Statistics historical table and the table of Wholesale Prices). Read the data set into R. The data include the following variables. Year: the year beginning with 2000 and ending with 2021. Month: the month represented numerically, 1=January, 2=February, ..., 12=December. TOMS_CPP: cost, in cents per pound of Toms, 16-24 lb. HENS_CPP: cost, in cents per pound of Hens, 8-16 lb. TOTAL_Y: total U.S. production of federally inspected turkey measured in millions of pounds. CPI: Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: All Items (CPIAUCSL) U.S. City Average. a) What is the (unweighted) average or mean price for Toms? That is, do not weight the price by anything. Just find the simple average or mean. [a_mean]. b) Use the CPI to find the real prices for Toms. Note, you are creating a new variable by dividing the nominal price by the CPI. What is the mean for the real price for Toms? Notice that the real prices are in terms of 1982-1984 dollars. If you simply divided by the CPI your price is now in terms of dollars instead of cents, i.e. 0.5 means $0.5 not half of a cent. [b_realprice]. For all questions below where the problem mentions the price use the real price. Make sure to use the real price for the remainder of this question set. c) The correlations for all the prices are positive. That is, as the price of hens goes up the price of toms also tends up and the same is true for the prices of wings and drumsticks. TOTAL_Y is a combination of all the products, toms, hens wings etc. Create a plot of total turkey production against the real price of toms and/or find their correlation. The relationship in the plot and/or correlation suggests the data reflect [c_supply]. d) The data in this data set are a [d_timeseries]. e) Regress total production, TOTAL_Y, on the real price for toms. What is the R squared value for this regression? [e_r2]. f) T/F the coefficient on the price is statistically significant at the 0.05 level. [f_true]. g) T/F the coefficient on the price is statistically significantly different from 100 at the 0.05 level. [g_false]. h) Examine the default plots of the residuals that R produces. Also, plot the residuals against time or ordered by time (these are the same thing). You may also use formal tests to help you evaluate the situation. Choose the best statement from the following. (i) there do not appear to be any significant violations of the assumptions of constant variance and independence, (ii) there appears to be a significant violation of the assumption of constant variance but not the assumption of independence, (iii) there appear to be a significant violation of the assumption of independence but not the assumption of constant variance, (iv) both the assumptions of constant variance and independence appear to be violated. [h_i]. i) For this part use the real price of toms. Regardless of your response to part (c) note that the ERS is reporting the amount of turkey produced. Transform the price and the output variables to estimate the price elasticity of production in a way consistent with examples in the course texts and videos. Report the estimated price elasticity of production. [i_1212]. j) Test the hypothesis that the price elasticity of production is 0.5 and use an alpha of 0.1. Report the test statistic and your conclusion to either reject or fail to reject the hypothesis. [j_tstat]. k) Which three months have the highest median prices for toms? Hint, it may help to create a boxplot of the price for each month; boxplot(price~month). [k_91011]. l) Regress total production, TOTAL_Y, on the real price for toms and an indicator variable for the Thanksgiving holiday season. The indicator for the Thanksgiving holiday season is 1 for October and November and 0 otherwise. Conceptually, the production begins to increase in October to prepare for the holiday demand. What is the R squared for this regression? [l_r2]. m) Based on the regression result what is the average increase in production of turkey meat during the holiday season after controlling for the price? [m_increase]. n) What is the predicted output (millions of pounds of turkey meat) for the month of March when the price is $0.36? [n_yhat]. o) Conduct a test for autocorrelation for the first model (the model with the indicator for the Thanksgiving season) and the last model (the model with the indicator variable). Choose the best statement: (i) adding the indicator variable appears to reduce concerns about autocorrelation (ii) adding the indicator variable appears to increase concerns about autocorrelation (iii) with and without the indicator variable there are significant concerns about autocorrelation (iv) with and without the indicator variable there are no concerns about autocorrelation. [o_ii].
