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
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the series: 1 - 3 + 9 - 27 +... clearly has powers of the factor 3 in its terms and it is also an alternate series (the terms alternate from positive to negative). The terms are positive for
(even terms) , while the odd terms
are negative. (so most likely there should be a factor (-1) in the common ratio.
We can then represent it with the following summation expression:
given that each of its first four terms are:

Answer:
729015430.40641995 = 729015430.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the 3 decimal place is 6, you round up. If you round up for 0 you get 1. Therefore your answer is 729015430.41.
If you put in a calculator 11^2+9^2 then square root that it should give you your answer
