Explanation & Answer
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!
3 x^2 - 9y + 6 = 0
Put the equation in terms of y equal to a function of x:
9y = 3x^2 + 6
Divide by 9:
y = 1/3x^2 + 2/3
Clearly this is not a linear function because x is squared.

Create Association Rules on the dataset and Apply decision tree induction algorithm using R
Part I: For this part, you need to explore the bank data (bankdata_csv_all.csv), available in attachments, and an accompanying description (bankdataDescription.doc) of the attributes and their values.The dataset contains attributes on each person’s demographics and banking information in order to determine they will want to obtain the new PEP (Personal Equity Plan). Your goal is to perform Association Rule discovery on the dataset using R. First perform the necessary preprocessing steps required for association rule mining, specifically the id field needs to be removed and a number of numeric fields need discretization or otherwise converted to nominal. Next, set PEP as the right hand side of the rules, and see what rules are generated. Select the top 5 most “interesting” rules and for each specify the following: Support, Confidence and Lift values An explanation of the pattern and why you believe it is interesting based on the business objectives of the company. Any recommendations based on the discovered rule that might help the company to better understand behavior of its customers or to develop a business opportunity. Note that the top 5 most interesting rules are most likely not the top 5 in the strong rules.They are rules, that in addition to having high lift and confidence, also provide some non-trivial, actionable knowledge based on underlying business objectives. To complete this assignment, write a short report describing your association rule mining process and the resulting 5 interesting rules, each with their three items of explanation and recommendations.For at least one of the rules, discuss the support, confidence and lift values and how they are interpreted in this data set. You should write your answers as if you are working for a client who knows little about data mining. Your report should give your client some insightful and reliable suggestions on what kinds of potential buyers your client should contact, and convince your client that your suggestions are reliable based on the evidence gathered from your experiment results. In more detail, your answers should include: Description of preprocessing steps Description of parameters and experiments in order to obtain strong rules Give the top 5 most interesting rules and the 3 items listed above for each rule. Part II: In this part of homework, you are expected to Apply decision tree induction tree algorithm to solve a mystery in history: who wrote the disputed essays, Hamilton or Madison? About the Federalist Papers About the disputed authorshipComputational approach for authorship attribution Quote from the Library of Congress http://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/federalist.html The Federalist Papers were a series of eighty-five essays urging the citizens of New York to ratify the new United States Constitution. Written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, the essays originally appeared anonymously in New York newspapers in 1787 and 1788 under the pen name "Publius." A bound edition of the essays was first published in 1788, but it was not until the 1818 edition published by the printer Jacob Gideon that the authors of each essay were identified by name. The Federalist Papers are considered one of the most important sources for interpreting and understanding the original intent of the Constitution. The original essays can be downloaded from the Library of Congress. http://thomas.loc.gov/home/histdox/fedpapers.html In the author column, you will find 74 essays with identified authors: 51 essays written by Hamilton, 15 by Madison, 3 by Hamilton and Madison, 5 by Jay. The remaining 11 essays, however, is authored by “Hamilton or Madison”. These are the famous essays with disputed authorship. Hamilton wrote to claim the authorship before he was killed in a duel. Later Madison also claimed authorship. Historians were trying to find out which one was the real author. In 1960s, statistician Mosteller and Wallace analyzed the frequency distributions of common function words in the Federalist Papers, and drew their conclusions. This is a pioneering work on using mathematical approaches for authorship attribution. Nowadays, authorship attribution has become a classic problem in the data mining field, with applications in forensics (e.g. deception detection), and information organization. The Federalist Paper data set (fedPapers85.csv) is provided in LMS. The features are a set of “function words”, for example, “upon”. The feature value is the percentage of the word occurrence in an essay. For example, for the essay “Hamilton_fed_31.txt”, if the function word “upon” appeared 3 times, and the total number of words in this essay is 1000, the feature value is 3/1000=0.3% Organize your report using the following template: Section 1: Data preparation You will need to separate the original data set to training and testing data for classification experiments. Describe what examples in your training and what in your test data. Section 2: Build and tune decision tree models First build a DT model using the default setting, and then tune the parameters to see if better model can be generated. Compare these models using appropriate evaluation measures. Describe and compare the patterns learned in these models. Section 3: Prediction After building the classification model, apply it to the disputed papers to find out the authorship and report the performance accuracy of your models.

Problem Set #4Attached Files: Question 1 - Build a Model - Matrix Computing.xlsx (20.094 KB) Question 2 - Build a Model - Pinto.com.xlsx (30.761 KB)Question 1Start with the partial model in the attached.The stock of Matrix Computing sells for $65, and last year’s dividend was $2.53. Security analysts are projecting that the common dividend will grow at a rate of 9% a year. A flotation cost of 12% would be required to issue new common stock. Matrix’s preferred stock sells for $42.00, pays a dividend of $3.32 per share, and new preferred stock could be sold with a flotation cost of 10%. The firm has outstanding bonds with 25 years to maturity, a 15% annual coupon rate, semiannual payments, $1,000 par value. The bonds are trading at $1,271.59. The tax rate is 20%. The market risk premium is 5.5%, the risk-free rate is 7.0%, and Matrix’s beta is 1.2. In its cost-of-capital calculations, Matrix uses a target capital structure with 40% debt, 10% preferred stock, and 50% common equity.a. Calculate the cost of each capital component—in other words, the after-tax cost of debt, the cost of preferred stock (including flotation costs), and the cost of equity (ignoring flotation costs). Use both the CAPM method and the dividend growth approach to find the cost of equity.b. Calculate the cost of new stock using the dividend growth approach.c. Assuming that Matrix will not issue new equity and will continue to use the same tar-get capital structure, what is the company’s WACCQuestion 2Start with the partial model in the attached.Pinto.com has developed a powerful new server that would be used for corporations’ Internet activities. It would cost $25 million at Year 0 to buy the equipment necessary to manufacture the server. The project would require net working capital at the beginning of each year in an amount equal to 12% of the year’s projected sales; for example, NWC0 = 12%(Sales1 ). The servers would sell for $21,000 per unit, and Pinto believes that variable costs would amount to $15,000 per unit. After Year 1, the sales price and variable costs will increase at the inflation rate of 2.5%. The company’s nonvariable costs would be $1.5 million at Year 1 and would increase with inflation. The server project would have a life of 4 years. If the project is undertaken, it must be continued for the entire 4 years. Also, the project’s returns are expected to be highly correlated with returns on the firm’s other assets. The firm believes it could sell 2,000 units per year. The equipment would be depreciated over a 5-year period, using MACRS rates. The estimated market value of the equipment at the end of the project’s 4-year life is $1 million. Pinto.com’s federal-plus-state tax rate is 20%. Its cost of capital is 10% for average-risk projects, defined as projects with a coefficient of variation of NPV between 0.8 and 1.2. Low-risk projects are evaluated with an 8% project cost of capital and high-risk projects at 13%.Develop a spreadsheet model, and use it to find the project’s NPV, IRR, and payback.Now conduct a sensitivity analysis to determine the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales price, variable costs per unit, and number of units sold. Set these variables’ values at 10% and 20% above and below their base-case values.Now conduct a scenario analysis. Assume that there is a 25% probability that best-case conditions, with each of the variables discussed in Part b being 20% better than its base-case value, will occur. There is a 25% probability of worst-case conditions, with the variables 20% worse than base, and a 50% probability of base-case conditions.If the project appears to be more or less risky than an average project, find its risk-adjusted NPV, IRR, and payback.On the basis of information in the problem, would you recommend the project should be accepted?Question 3You are a financial analyst for the Waffle Company. The director of capital budgeting has asked you to analyze two proposed capital investments, Projects A and B. Each project has a cost of $50,000, and the cost of capital for each is 10%.The projects’ expected net cash flows are as follows: Expected Net Cash FlowsYearProject AProject B0($50,000)($50,000)125,00015,000220,00015,000310,00015,00045,00015,00055,00015,000Calculate each project’s payback period, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), modified internal rate of return (MIRR), and profitability index (PI).Which project will you select if your decision was based solely on the project’s payback period?Which project or projects should be accepted if they are independent?Which project should be accepted if they are mutually exclusive?d. How might a change in the cost of capital produce a conflict between the NPV and IRR rankings of these two projects? Would this conflict exist if r were 6%? (Hint: Plot the NPV profiles.)Question 4Marvin Industries must choose between an electric-powered and a coal-powered forklift machine for its factory. Because both machines perform the same function, the firm will choose only one. (They are mutually exclusive investments.) The electric-powered machine will cost more, but it will be less expensive to operate; it will cost $102,000, whereas the coal-powered machine will cost $69,500. The cost of capital that applies to both investments is 10%. The life for both types of machines is estimated to be 6 years, during which time the net cash flows for the electric-powered machine will be $26,150 per year, and those for the coal-powered machine will be $20,000 per year. Annual net cash flows include depreciation expenses.Calculate the NPV and IRR for each type of machine, and decide which to recommendSubmit your answers in a Word document.

PUBH 8500 Walden Assumptions of Linearity Sampling independence Normality & Homoscedasticity Paper
Assignment: AssessmentThe testing of assumptions, recognition of limitations, and proper use of diagnostics are all necessary elements in the use of multiple linear regression for public health research. All of these elements allow biostatisticians to better assess the results of multiple linear regression models.For this Assignment, you test that assumptions for multiple linear regression have been met, use SPSS to create a multiple linear regression, evaluate results to determine whether the model is appropriate, and finally interpret the relationships uncovered through this statistical test between the independent and dependent variables. Use the Week 4 Dataset (SPSS document) from the Learning Resources area to complete this assignment.The AssignmentExplain the assumptions of Linearity, Sampling independence, Normality, and Homoscedasticity (or equal variance). (30 points)How would you test whether these have been met? (Note: for the exam you do not need to test these assumptions)Using SPSS, test the assumption of Linearity between the independent and dependent variables.Using SPSS, test the assumption of Normality for the dependent variable.Conduct a multiple linear regression using SPSS. Provide relevant SPSS output and assess the statistical significance of the effects of mother’s Age, BMI, and Coffee (Cups per Day) on Birth weight. (30 points)Explain the practical implications of your finding. Include a reference to the R square of the model in your discussion. (20 points)Discuss whether or not there is interaction (effect modification) first between Age and BMI and second between BMI and Coffee. (20 points)

PUBH 8500 Walden Assumptions of Linearity Sampling independence Normality & Homoscedasticity Paper
Assignment: AssessmentThe testing of assumptions, recognition of limitations, and proper use of diagnostics are all necessary elements in the use of multiple linear regression for public health research. All of these elements allow biostatisticians to better assess the results of multiple linear regression models.For this Assignment, you test that assumptions for multiple linear regression have been met, use SPSS to create a multiple linear regression, evaluate results to determine whether the model is appropriate, and finally interpret the relationships uncovered through this statistical test between the independent and dependent variables. Use the Week 4 Dataset (SPSS document) from the Learning Resources area to complete this assignment.The AssignmentExplain the assumptions of Linearity, Sampling independence, Normality, and Homoscedasticity (or equal variance). (30 points)How would you test whether these have been met? (Note: for the exam you do not need to test these assumptions)Using SPSS, test the assumption of Linearity between the independent and dependent variables.Using SPSS, test the assumption of Normality for the dependent variable.Conduct a multiple linear regression using SPSS. Provide relevant SPSS output and assess the statistical significance of the effects of mother’s Age, BMI, and Coffee (Cups per Day) on Birth weight. (30 points)Explain the practical implications of your finding. Include a reference to the R square of the model in your discussion. (20 points)Discuss whether or not there is interaction (effect modification) first between Age and BMI and second between BMI and Coffee. (20 points)
