Answer to Question 1

The slope of the model is 8225.1. The model predicts that for each additional carat, the cost of the diamond will increase by 8225.10, on average. This can also be interpreted as for each additional 0.01 carat, the cost of the diamond will increase by 82.251, on average.

Answer to Question 2

The regression equation is
2004 US  = -559 + 8225 Carat

Predictor Coef SE Coef T P
Constant -558.52 57.88 -9.65 0.000
Carat 8225.1 239.1 34.40 0.000

S = 64.9355 R-Sq = 98.7 R-Sq(adj) = 98.7

Predicted cost = -558.52 + 8225.1(carat)

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Acute bronchitis is an inflammation of the breathing tubes (bronchi), which causes increased mucus production and other changes. It is usually caused by bacteria or viruses, can be serious in people who have pulmonary or cardiac diseases, and can lead to pneumonia.

Fatal fungal infections may be able to resist newer antifungal drugs. Globally, fungal infections are often fatal due to the lack of access to multiple antifungals, which may be required to be utilized in combination. Single antifungals may not be enough to stop a fungal infection from causing the death of a patient.

ACTH levels are normally highest in the early morning (between 6 and 8 A.M.) and lowest in the evening (between 6 and 11 P.M.). Therefore, a doctor who suspects abnormal levels looks for low ACTH in the morning and high ACTH in the evening.
