Assignment 8

Please read Chapter 8 of Forest Faunal Systems.

Use CAP164 to get the statistics on the following 6 numbers :12,45,67,89,111,55. Send me the results. Use the program (I gave you a few numbers so that you do not spend much time entering data.) This is how I intend these units to be used...each night...so that there an be feedback.

The simple linear regression if a powerful tool for looking ahead if you are willing to assume the future will be genarally as in the past. Use CAP110 to develop a regression for the following measures of animals in relation to plant dennsity. (The first number is the animals, the second number is the plant density) 33,55; 12,40; 44,63; 15, 40; 20,43; 45, 60 Send me a note showing the equation, the R-square, and what the population would like be if the plant density was brought to 70. Use these numbers to become familiar with the Capper programs.

Run CAP155A and send me the results about the time that you spend.

I hope that you will enjoy the programs.
