Consider the data points (2, 3), (3, 2), (5, 1), (6, 0).
(a) find the equation of the least-squares line y = β0 + β1x which best fits the data.
(b) find the equation of the least-squares parabola y = β0 + β1x + β2x 2 which best fits the data.
(c) calculate how much ‘better’ the parabola fits the data than the line: calculate and compare ~y − xβ~ 2 , which is the sum of squares of the errors terms, for the line and parabola found in parts (a) and (b).

Aspacecraft can attain a stable orbit 300 kilometers above earth if it reaches a velocity of 7.7 kilometers per second. the formula for a rocket's maximum velocity v in kilometers per second is vequalsminus0.0098tplusc ln upper r, where t is the firing time in seconds, c is the velocity of the exhaust in kilometers per second, and r is the ratio of the mass of the rocket filled with fuel to the mass of the rocket without fuel. find the velocity of a spacecraft whose booster rocket has a mass ratio of 20, an exhaust velocity of 2.1 km/s, and a firing time of 15 s. can the spacecraft achieve a stable orbit 300 km above earth?
