Answer:
(a) MAE = 5.20
(b) MSE = 10
(c) MAPE = 38.60%
(d) Forecast for week 7 = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: See the attached excel for the calculations of the Error, Error^2, and Error %.
(a) mean absolute error
MAE = Total of absolute value of error / Number of observations considered = |Error| / 5 = 26 / 5 = 5.20
(b) mean squared error
MSE = Total of Error^2 / Number of observations considered = Error^2 / 5 = 150 / 5 = 10
(c) mean absolute percentage error (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
MAPE = Total of Error % / Number of observations considered = Error % / 5 = 193.02 / 5 = 38.60%
(d) What is the forecast for week 7?
Since the forecast is based on the naive method (most recent value), the forecast for week 7 is value for week 6. Therefore, we have:
Forecast for week 7 = 14
421.75

Complete Question
Consider greenhouse A with floor dimensions w = 16 feet , l = 18 feet.
A concrete slab 4 inches deep will be poured for the floor of greenhouse A. How many cubic feet of concrete are needed for the floor?
Answer:
96 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the floor of the green house = Length × Width × Height
We convert the dimensions in feet to inches
1 foot = 12 inches
For width
1 foot = 12 inches
16 feet = x
Cross Multiply
x = 16 × 12 inches
x = 192 inches
For length
1 foot = 12 inches
18 feet = x
Cross Multiply
x = 18 × 12 inches
x = 216 inches
The height or depth = 4 inches deep
Hence,
Volume = 192 inches × 216 inches × 4 inches
= 165888 cubic inches
From cubic inches to cubic feet
1 cubic inches = 0.000578704 cubic foot
165888 cubic inches = x
Cross Multiply
x = 16588 × 0.000578704 cubic foot
x = 96 cubic feet
Therefore, 96 cubic feet of concrete is needed for the floor
